For _*public*_ documentation purposes, which is what people do who want to
use free software do:

{foo=bar} is *only* valid at the beginning of the dial string.
it will set the same variables on every channel.

[foo=bar] goes before every individual dial string.

{foo=bar}[chan=a]sofia/default/blah at baz.com,[chan=b]sofia/default/
blah2 at baz.com
