If you want to do it that way, then I suggest we use C-D (with a new
disposition type) to define the info-package, and make that new
disposition type be the default CD for INFO messages.

Hmm... interesting idea. So define a single, global C-D value like "package", which all packages use?

Yes, that is what I had in mind.

Wouldn't that limit what a specific package could do? (like how would you get a 
package that wants render, vs. icon, vs. one which wants signal?)

If it wants bodies like that, which are processed based on their type and disposition, it can just include them for processing in their own right independent of the method.

For actual info package bodies, the handling should be determined by the definition of the info package, not by the content disposition. If we are identifying the body of the info package via cid, then the c-d of the info package should be by-reference as defined in the body handling draft.

Send the 200 OK and let the application sort out the body.  SIP has done
its job - don't be a layer violator and conflate an application error
with a transport error!
I don't think I agree with this, but it could stand some further
discussion. Are you asserting this behavior is special for INFO? Or that
it is true for all messages?
I don't find anything in 2976 that calls for a success response when the
content of the body is incorrect.

Yeah there's no debate that SIP expects INVITE/UPDATE to be handled integral 
with body processing.  What's always been argued is how to handle things like 
MESSAGE, SUB/NOT and INFO.  Several people have argued the body part content of 
those was at a higher layer.  The text in SUB/NOT RFC only defined a response 
code for bad Event-types or unknown body content-types I think, but left body 
processing failure out of it.  And none of the packages seem to go any deeper 
as far as I can tell.

Of course in practice some (many?) devices respond with failure codes when body 
processing fails no matter the method.

Wasn't this debated a couple few ago on this list?
