Hi Jonathan,
The use case we are looking at is where the registrar is separate from
the edge proxy.

Sure. I think that is a valid case.

While the edge proxy could validate the UA has access to
a cert issued by a trusted root, it doesn't necessarily mean the UA has
a valid subscription to network services.

No. But, such a proxy could assert the identity it verified.

The edge proxy may/would not
have access to this type of registration data, thus the need to
authenticate from UA to registrar.

You lost me here. With mutual TLS, the client can authenticate itself to the edge proxy. The edge proxy can assert the authenticated identity towards the registrar, ala P-A-ID or even better, SIP Identity. THe registrar then authorizes access, and rejects the request if the user is not authorized.
