Here is an explanation what I meant with "seize" versus "select".
I might have been using a definition of "selection" that is different
from what you had in mind.

In my mind, I was equating "seizing" with the concept of actually
reserving the AOR for ones self by PUBLISHing (or NOTIFYing) the
Appearance agent of the call state "premptively".

In contrast, I was using the term "selection" to mean the local
action (on the phone) of choosing which "line" to use (i.e., the
"From" header). This is local because it does not require any
publication of state to the appearance agent. The user presses
a line key, no signalling comes out immediately (and user probably
hears dial tone). When the call is eventually made, it uses that 
line that was "selected" as the originator (i.e., the From header).

I am proposing that if we use these definitions, then it makes it much
clearer throughout the document what we are talking about. There are
lots of cases where we mean "selection or seizing" (because the PUBLISH/
SUBSCRIBE is optional), and in other cases, we really mean the
"seizing".

So, for example, in 10.4, messages F1-F2 are actually a "seizing", not 
merely a "selection".

Anyways, just think about it. 

I think there are people who would want to implement the "line seizure" 
concept, and people who would NOT want to implement it. If it's clear
what "seizure" means, then it makes it obvious in the text what is the
optional part.
