[Blink] Dialing rules

This is a useful feature when one has more accounts in different countries.

Given the current Blink GUI design, how would such feature look like? Now when one makes an outbound call at least is known which account is being used.

Adding a country prefix per account and match the account when dialing out? How to display this without overloading the interface? Adding an attribute per contact to point to a certain account for all outbound  calls? How to deal with exceptions, maybe I do not want to use this setting fro some calls and chose another account?

We are open for suggestions.
