Allow callers to stay in queue without an active selection

We would love to see an option that allows callers to remain in the queue without having to make an active IVR selection.

In our market, the most common expectation is simply to wait for an answer. Requiring callers to press a key to continue waiting can create unnecessary friction and may lead to confusion or abandoned calls.

An option to let callers stay in the queue automatically, while still offering callback or other choices as optional alternatives, would create a more natural and user-friendly phone experience.

Would anyone else find this useful?
