The current text says we do not allow multiple Info-Packages per INFO message. Although not stated (and I will state explicitly if we continue to go in this direction), this nominally makes parsers easier and makes failure handling straightforward.

I would offer the former issue is not real. Namely the way of transporting multiple Info-Packages in an INFO message would be to encapsulate in a multipart MIME body. However, all SIP endpoints must support multipart MIME, so this is a non-issue.

The latter issue is quite true in theory. If I send two Info Package bodies, and for some reason the UAS barfs on one of those bodies, the UAS does not have a clean way of indicating which body barfed, and both effectively get treated at the UAC as failed. The reason I caveated this issue "in theory" is I cannot think of a situation where this would matter. Most of these usages are all-or-nothing, which means simply failing is OK.

Moreover, I would offer the first thing people will ask for is transporting multiple INFO messages in a single message....
