Dale,
If the NOTIFY arrives out of dialog then I don't think 481 is a suitable
response, unless we also want to overload it further to mean "this
should have been in a dialog".
And of course, the sender, who is sending based on some logic other than
having a dialog, may not treat a 481 as an indication that it should
stop doing this.
