Plenty of IWF devices do SIP-2833 to/from H.245-UII to make DTMF work (AFAIK, 
all of them do).  That requires media to go through the IWF-box, but that's 
life today.  Of course if there were a SIP signaling path for DTMF, then media 
could go direct.  But that's crazy talk.  ;)
And those same IWF devices also do SIP-INFO to/from H.245-UII, for cases where 
the SIP side needs signaling-path DTMF.
