[Christer] Maybe these notifications could be sent in the BYE? And/or,
maybe we could define a "dialog" value for subscription usage lifetime?

I haven't thought about this proposal in detail yet, but we would also
need to take the the dialog-reuse spec (which proposes NOT to mix dialog
usages) into consideration. But, if we somehow could bind the
subscription lifetime to the dialog lifetime I think that at least some
of the issues in that spec would be solved.

Regards,

Christer
