Thanks Paul - I actually noticed that yesterday while reading the RFC for the 
Nth time...
I must add that I have never ever seen that happen in real SIP communication.
I think it's very clever though.

I think that's a question to add to Robert's questionnaire at SIPits:

- Does your UA add an SDP to a 488 error message?

Asking for it is a good way to indicate that it's possible and a preferred way 
of handling errors.
