If you did that you would lose control of the call, you could not use
originate, you wuld just have to let the dialplan process the call and
maybe get the uuid  with execute_on_something.

When any call comes in in any context, the dialplan works out how to process that call and routes it to a variety of possible places, including an internal extension and an external gateway. Now I want to originate a call, why does the originate command insist on me specifying the full endpoint to use? I just want to specify the number to call and have the dialplan work out which endpoint to use.
