As far as I know, both true E.164 and those that "look like" E.164 are being 
changed, as well as NANP/local-exchange format, emergency code, and some 
cellular-specific number formats, etc.  To be honest I really believe a lot of 
these truly are E.164 or non-local-scope numbers in nature/meaning, and just 
aren't using the exact format one would want.  In other words it's as Paul says 
"do what I mean, not what I say".

Really some of the rules are pretty simplistic, including even just change it 
regardless of username format.  But I would consider those just bad and need to 
be corrected, and will if email-style URI's start showing up.

Really though I don't think there's much/any email-style URIs crossing provider 
borders. (inside Enterprises or within a provider may be, but that doesn't need 
rfc4474)  Or maybe it's just my particular customers, or my kind of customers.  
I dunno.  I find everyone on the IETF list has a different view of SIP, because 
they represent different users/markets.
