Ah-ah... Now we are getting down to business.

I am now looking at new section 10.1 on registration, and I see that
you are using indeed third-party registration (with To=HelpDesk, 
From=Alice).

So, this would be one way to to it.

Another way would be to NOT use third-party registration at all. In 
other words, Alice would send a first party registration on behalf
of HelpDesk (ie.., To=HelpDesk, From=Alice).

Wouldn't that work?

Then there is the whole issue of authentication with HTTP-Digest.
I guess one could use username="HelpDesk". In this case, the idea is that
Alice would need to know the credentials for HelpDesk. 
Another way would be to use username="alice" instead (i.e., her own 
credentials).
The decisions on which authentication you use would depend on need of the 
administrator.

Have you tought about this? Am I off based?
