Let me try to explain:

Let's say proxy P1 inserts location information L1, and user agent U1 inserts L2. I want to identity L1 and L2, not necessarily the IP addresses or host names for proxy P1 or user agent U1 (which may or may not be unique, if NATs are involved).

The reason is simple - some element may insert location information, and the poor sender will try to figure out an error for location information it has never inserted.

I think this should be in all responses, as calls may succeed even if the location information, or one piece of it, happens to be bad. I still want to know that the call may have been routed without taking the location information into consideration, say, and why.

The 3261 generic-param is fine with me.

Question - what's the difference between "...he location element that suffers from the problem identified..." mentioned above and how you "... don't feel strongly about identifying the originator of the error". Aren't they the same node?

If not, I need to understand, as I define what ID goes into this header.

Another point - should this error header only be in the 424 (Bad Location Information) response, or all 4XX responses, allowing a transaction to be successful - but without the location piece of the information exchange being good?

This was discussed, but I don't think the discussion ever concluded.
