I have absolutely *no* problem with that, *if* it reaches example.com 
before being translated. That is policy business between you and your 
home proxy.

I have a problem when it passes through foo.com which then decides this 
is a phone number and routes it to a GW without it ever going to 
example.com. And I am hearing you (I think) and others saying that is 
common practice and in fact necessary in many cases for calls not to fail.

That is a somewhat interesting proposal. But it does change the existing 
semantics of user=phone. So I hope we can keep that as a separate 
discussion.

I believe it does, just as much as sips demands that a sips path be 
used, http demands that an http path be used, etc.

If somebody gives you an http URL, do you think it is an intended usage 
for you to transform it into an ftp URL?

It in fact may work to transform the http into an ftp URL. But if so 
that is a special case that can only be known to work based on extra 
context.

In the case of sip, we might say that user=phone is provides that extra 
context. IMO that is still just a heuristic, not a standard behavior. If 
we want it to be a sanctioned standard behavior then we need to write 
some new specs.

Well, there are no *guarantees*.

But IMO you ought not to be using that as your From address if you 
*expect* callbacks to work and you don't at least *expect* that the 
returns will work via an all-sip path. If you don't think so, then IMO 
you ought to put a TEL URI in the From.

I disagree. IMO this is indeed the true distinction between sip and tel.
