Since it is only the URI and tag which are used for call leg matching, this
would be OK, although I don't recommend you muck around with these for no
reason.

The problem has to do with storing whitespace on other formatting characters
when parsing. I'd like to be able to parse a header, discard any LWS, and
reconstruct the header. This should be "equivalent" based on concrete
matching rules, to the initial version.
