I'm glad to see someone is thinking about this.  However, merely being
able to do referrals across nat64 for SIP and Bittorrent is not
sufficient.  It needs to work for every kind of NAT, and for anything
else that blocks referrals other than for policy reasons, and for any
kind of app that wishes to do referrals.

Of course we can't expect deployed boxes to magically upgrade
themselves, so what I'm talking about is the desired end-state.  The
point is that if we're going to have NATs of any kind in the
architecture, we need to define a way for the apps to do referrals in
spite of those NATs.  It's not sufficient to provide a piecemeal
solution that works only for specific kinds of NATs or specific apps.
