Do all [SIP] option tags really need to be standards track?
I would argue that they do. Option tags define normative extensions to
the core SIP protocol. The prospect of defining a SIP protocol extension
in, say, an informational or historical document seems rather
ill-advised. Even an experimental document is probably the wrong place
to put extensions to core SIP protocol handling.
I would feel even more uneasy about allowing non-IETF documents to
define option tags: the types of extensions that would necessitate an
options tag usually add enough semantics to the protocol that it would
be foolish to condone their creation without IESG review.
