   You mean like a 302?

Is a 302 allowed to offer a sip: URI as a contact for a sips:
request-URI?

380 looks like it is intended to have this sort of effect, but its
content has not been standardized:

21.3.5 380 Alternative Service

   The call was not successful, but alternative services are possible.

   The alternative services are described in the message body of the
   response.  Formats for such bodies are not defined here, and may be
   the subject of future standardization.

And 416 seems plausible:

8.1.3.5 Processing 4xx Responses

   If a 416 (Unsupported URI Scheme) response is received (Section
   21.4.14), the Request-URI used a URI scheme not supported by the
   server.  The client SHOULD retry the request, this time, using a SIP
   URI.

But I can't tell if that last sentence is just a nit and should have
read "... this time, using a SIP or SIPS URI."
