Another source of confusion is that section 8.1.3.5 of RFC 3261 says the new
INVITE request SHOULD use same value of Call-ID, To and From as the previous
INVITE request. It is not clear whether it means just the same value of the
URI portion of To and From or also the same tags.

If it means the same tags then it is probably wrong --the new INVITE request
can not have a To tag, since the dialog is already gone.
