You mean that the MGCF wouldn't know what todo with the Request URI. 
This sounds like a backwards compatibility aspect.

That's probably true.

I don't think that the Request URI has anything todo with registrations.

In the 3GPP model with the E-CSCF and the PSAP having a close relationship you 
could leave this issue open. It would, however, make their life easier.

Only in the 3GPP IMS alike architecture. The IETF emergency services 
architecture is a bit different.

I am not sure whether this is a good solution.

When you have intermediate entities that need to recognize emergency calls and 
need to treat the call differently then you might want to define the procedures 
since otherwise there is a chance that things don't work as expected. 

Ciao
