Going back no_media after hold isn't supported yet.. Anthony said he would add it if someone really really wanted it and posted a bounty of $500 to cover his time to implement it.
Thanks all for the info. The bottom line seems to be that it's really not a good idea to remove Freeswitch from the media path, and it's a better idea to look elsewhere if scalability is an issue.
I don't think that's a good summary. What contributors to this thread are saying is that there are trade-offs: you can keep FreeSWITCH in the media path, with its consequent load on the server, or you can configure it for bypass media or proxy media modes to reduce the load. In the latter case, nat traversal issues may have to be dealt with, if relevant to your situation, and if anyone wants to return to bypass media after hold, they're welcome to pay the bounty to have this functionality implemented.
