Those cases are the ones I said would be useful in my original email far below. 
 I.e., when I said "two reasons not cited: PBX connections a la SIP trunks, and 
proxy-proxy connections."  They are not identical, in the sense that an IP-PBX 
can be a b2bua/UA/whatever, but also in the sense of their example use-case, 
for example an IP-PBX could be behind a NAT and thus want this keep-alive for 
more reasons than a proxy-proxy.
