Description:	The event contains both the old and the new unique id, allowing manager applications to track what's happening. The problem is that all manager events after a blind call transfer carry a new unique id, and there isn't any manager event that contains both the old and new unique ids, thereby making following the call impossible for any manager applications. This patch intends to remedy this situation.
Comments:	By: oelewapperke (oelewapperke) 2011-01-04 08:39:31.000-0600 This patch works by sending a manager event after a new channel has been allocated and requested, only if the channel is successfully allocated.

Channels no longer change their names or their unique IDs - ever. Particularly not during transfers. This is true during all stages of execution. As such, I'm going to go ahead and close this out. Thanks for the contribution anyway!
