This is delayed, but I haven't heard of this point being addressed:

   If the purpose of this is to communicate the targeted URI from the 
   terminating proxy to the UA, I don't see how any mechanism can work 
   unless it is supported by that proxy and that UA. Any of the mechanisms 
   mentioned or discussed (P-Called-Party-ID, To, History-Info) have this 
   property.

The property I'm looking for is "If the proxy applies the mechanism,
but the UA doesn't understand it, the UA automatically processes the
request as if the mechanism was not employed."  If we carry the
"retargeted AOR" in a URI parameter or header and modify the
request-URI as now, we obtain this property.  If we don't modify the
request-URI, the proxy has to have accurate knowledge of which targets
support UA Loose Routing and which don't.
