Just to be absolutely sure - do you mean that it is more appropriate to
create a new disposition-type of the Content-Disposition header (rather than
creating new "handling" parameter values)? Thanks.

Kind regards

Subject: Re: [Sip] [sip] extensions of "handling" parameter of
Content-Disposition header

I can't think why you would want to have added values for the handling
parameter. IMO what you want to do would be better served by values of
the Content-Disposition itself.

        Thanks,
        Paul
