If a device truly does not want to receive or reply to requests after the
ephemeral port tcp connection has been reclaimed, it can do as you are
describing.  Otherwise, using your presented solution would require the
device to provide the updated Contact on all relevant dialogs after the
connection gets re-established.

GRUU was only mentioned within the Introduction and Problem Statement
sections.  GRUU is not required for connection reuse per the reuse draft.
Additionally, Rohan has received comments that section 2.2 should
potentially be removed since the section applies more to the outbound draft.
