Are there any features in asterisk that might be used to effect a

I want to be able to start a Dial task running, in chich the execution
can be automated via DTMF tones (e.g., voicemail retrieval), but not
block the originating thread of execution. The dial plan or AGI
containing the Dial command should proceed on to the next step. I'll
arrange some kind of rendezvous later on.
As far as I can tell, I'm on my own to build this capability through
some sort of daemon and the manager API or my own IPC mechanism. I'd
really hoped for some higher level of abstraction from within Asterisk
to accomplish this.
Am I missing something in Asterisk that will make this easier to
accomplish?
Are there any publically available examples of this kind of application?
Anybody got any ideas for nifty tricks to get this done?
See sample.call in the Asterisk source directory and .call files on the
Wiki. Sounds like you want Asterisk to call a person when a voicemail
is left and allow the person to get their voicemail during the
notification call.
