Yes; that reflects my name-addr comment.  Unfortunately, text similar to the
following RFC 3261 section 20 snippet did not make it into many of the RFCs
(such as RFC 3515) which defined headers containing "name-addr / addr-spec".
Without the brackets (or text to clarify how to decode), the receiver does
not necessarily know if "method" was sent as a URI parameter or header
parameter.

"  The Contact, From, and To header fields contain a URI.  If the URI
   contains a comma, question mark or semicolon, the URI MUST be
   enclosed in angle brackets (< and >).  Any URI parameters are
   contained within these brackets.  If the URI is not enclosed in angle
   brackets, any semicolon-delimited parameters are header-parameters,
   not URI parameters."

RFC 3325 errata 3744 discusses the issue (although from a comma
perspective).

The issue for other headers is also mentioned within the following link.
