Issues with RFC 3262 have been raised over the years including the long 2006 
SIP Tread "The Problem with PRACK".  

http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/sip/current/msg13221.html 

Some of them have been addressed by RFC 6337, RFC 6141, and RFC 6228.  However 
as RFC 6337 indicates, some issues still exist.

I don't recall if the potential deprecation of RFC 3262's requirement of offer 
within 18x was one of the things proposed within the above thread; however it 
was the topic of the following thread.

http://www.ietf.org/mail-archive/web/sipping/current/msg17210.html 

If you are motivated to do so, raise the issues with RFC 3262 within SIPCORE or 
DISPATCH to see if there is any current interest in an rfc3262bis.

The following are some other the old RFC 3262 threads which might help present 
some of reasons an rfc3262bis might be useful.
