Geoloc may be transported in any SIP request, afaik - except ACK and CANCEL.  
Putting a body in any/all messages which is not for the context of the message 
is not without precedent, I've been told.  Maybe this is just the first time 
that we really expect it to be used? :)

A content type of "application/sdp" can be used in any request that can carry 
mime bodies as far as I know.  It just wouldn't make sense to make it's C-D 
"session" in anything but INVITE, ACK, PRACK, and UPDATE; and for the 
SUB/NOT/PUB you'd have to define a package for using it.

BTW, CANCEL can't carry any body, afaict, if for no other reason than the 
Content-* headers needed to do so can't be used in CANCEL. (nor would we want 
it to be able to, for obvious reasons)
