I agree with Dean that feature tags and option tags are two separate
things.

But, in the sip.extensin feature tag you will actually list option tags
:)

sip.extension="100rel, info-packages, almighty-199" etc.

There seems to be some confusion between media feature tags, as used in
RFV 3840/3841, and SIP option tags.

Option tags are used in Supported and Require, with a common application
being in Supported header fields sent in response to OPTIONS messages.
They describe which extensions are supported by the UA. I think we need
one for INFO packages, because INFO package negotiation is clearly an
extension to base INFO.


Feature tags, on the other hand, support selective retargeting in
proxies where the potential targets are discovered via REGISTER
operations. We may need this too.
