Don't use the address - use the domain name.  That will be much more
likely to be unique.  Anyone using a domain that isn't legit in the DNS
or one ending in .local won't be able to do SIP over the Internet
anyway, so they only need to worry about collisions within the domain
and (I have it on good authority that) the smaller number of bits is
fine for that.
