Feel free to propose something to SIPCORE or DISPATCH.

If I recall the discussions correctly from 10 years ago, the idea was rejected 
because the Min-SE was actually the minimum.  Thus if someone was willing to 
use a lower Min-SE value, they would not have required the higher Min-SE.

If the UA doesn't know the correct Min-SE or has no minimum, it should not 
include the header (unless including it per RFC 4028's rules such as because 
received a 422).

If the UAC and proxy chain were willing to accommodate a lower Min-SE, they 
would not have previously explicitly required the higher Min-SE.  This of 
course assumes that the devices involved with any prior Min-SE/422 negotiations 
are actually still involved.
