Which hop???

UAC -----> Proxy 1  ------> Proxy 2 ------> UAS

If you put Request-URI of sip:[EMAIL PROTECTED];transport=tls, to me, it
means the link between Proxy 2 and UAS would use TLS. I.e., the
parameter would apply to the
resource identified in the URI.   (I'm assuming Record-Routing is used
here).

The first hop (between UAC and Proxy 1) is basically what you would
select before sending the message (or if a Route header was used, it
would be in the Route
header). To me, it's self-evident in the actual transport anyways.

Everytime I run into this issue, it seems to me that basically what
people
are asking for is just a way to select TLS for the first hop. We don't
need
protocol on the wire for this: just a config option in the UAC.

Surely they need to register with TLS for this to be secure. 
The transport could be self-evident again, from the one used
while performing the registration.
