Why can't this be done in the dialplan?. This is exactly why I implemented the 
MD5
dialplan stuff in Asterisk years ago. We need something else than MD5 today,
but still - both Asterisk and Kamailio can handle it without modules or extra 
coding...

The IETF is working on OAUTH authentication for SIP - which is the solution
we really want to look into - not copy weak auth from the API world... :-)
