Re: Clarification on blind transfer ( is needed )

Your summary is correct. The result should be 'near_end_disconnect' if a
caller cancels a transfer by barging in on a prompt, for both blind and
bridge transfers. This is because prompts are queued and played to
completion before the call transfer begins in either case.

The shadow variables would be filled as you describe.

This will be clarified in a future revision of the specification.
