There's two config options which provide alternative solutions:

In a PABX environment, an authenticated user can specify that they are 
at an arbitrary extension. This behaviour can be restricted in two ways.

To force a user to use a specified extension, add

  <variable name="sip-force-user" value="<extension>">

to that user's directory entry.

Alternatively, to check that users authenticate with the same username 
as that in their contact field for an entire profile, add

  <variable name="inbound-reg-force-matching-username" value="true">

to that profile's definition.

The problem I had (which led to these) was that it's pretty much 
essential in a PABX environment to have a degree of control over both 
username and auth-username - consider two users who both decide that 
they'd like to use '1000' as their username.
