You are right Paul, I hadn't noticed this. To summarise that here, it
suggests phone:XX=* to mean "use this number when calling from country
XX". Having read that section a couple of times it does not seem to make
clear whether whether it intends to refer to "phones connected to a
network in XX" or "phones with a SIM issued by a network in XX," the
difference becoming significant in a roaming situation. 

I note that section starts with a banner: "This hasn't been voted and is
just a documentation of use". Maybe this discussion can remedy that and
confirm the proposed syntax, or otherwise agree an alternative. In the
latter case of course someone with more guts than me will probably
suggest retagging.
