configuration option. And same for emergency calls. Now it is not a case
with ubuntu, but I everytime have one device for children to watch video
(not very often) without a SIM card. I am always worrying they accidentally
call emergency number. When the had device with SIm card they nearly every
time called someone from address book :) So I would prefer to have an
option to disable emergency calls from a device.

>> Well, not necessarily. A phone still has to be able to answer and make
phone calls (especially emergency calls) even when it is being used as a
desktop-style device. There's no reason to think the Dialer app would even
be installed on a desktop or tablet before VoIP and SIP integration are
finished (and even then it's likely to be optional). I suspect this is
something that snappy will improve. In any case it's not an *unreasonable*
suggestion while other, more permanent work is underway.
