I like this draft. It's exactly what I had in mind.

One comment however.

The name "target" is defined by this spec as a new History-Info parameter. 
However, the name 
"target" is also used by RFC 4458 as a SIP/SIP URI parameter.

Now, as described in RFC 4458, History-Info may capture the SIP URIs (including 
that parameter),
so you would endup with the term "target" twice (for different meanings) in the 
same History-Info,
which could be confusing.

Taking the example in 6.4/RFC 4458 for example, and adjusting it for 
draft-rosenberg-sip-target-uri-delivery would result in this:

    History-Info: <sip:[EMAIL PROTECTED];user=phone >;index=1;target,
                  <sip:[EMAIL PROTECTED];\
                   text="Moved Temporarily">;index=1.1
                  <sip: [EMAIL PROTECTED];\
                   target=sip:+15555551002%40example.com;user=phone;\
                   cause=486>;index=2;target

Now, it's parsable, but slightly confusing to have both a URI parameter and a 
History-Infor header 
parameter that are the same in the same history header. That would argue for a 
different name. (And the target in RFC 4458 is the previous target as opposed 
to the current target).

However...

There is another possibility. Jonathan's draft actually make the "target" URI 
parameter in 4458 redundant. The only thing that remains useful from 4458 is 
then the "cause" URI parameter.

So, we could obsolete the draft (or at least just the taget parameter in 4458). 
The History-Info 
heade in the previous example would look like this:

    History-Info: <sip:[EMAIL PROTECTED];user=phone >;index=1;target,
                  <sip:[EMAIL PROTECTED];\
                   text="Moved Temporarily">;index=1.1
                  <sip: [EMAIL PROTECTED]>;index=2;target
