Summary:                    discrepacy in sendtext
Description: 
SendText behave in a different way if channell is answered or not and in
dependency of the phone used

SendText should be consistent

Example: if channell is answered a GXP2000 display message onto the screen
while snom3X0 will not, so add_text in chan_sip.c shoul be changed to
address this:

static int add_text(struct sip_request *req, const char *text)
{
        /* XXX Convert \n's to \r\n's XXX */
        add_header(req, "Content-Type", "text/plain");
        add_header(req, "Content-Disposition", "desktop" );
        add_header_contentLength(req, strlen(text));
        add_line(req, text);
        return 0;
}

If channell is not answered there should be an option to have SendText
answer the channel itself otherwise on GXP2000 it will add the message into
the phone's SMS menù.

I'm not telling SendText that should work how i need, i'm just telling it
does not work in the same way on many phones.

IMHO it shoul be splitted in 2 apps: 1 to send the message onto the
display (usefull for AOC and other infoes during the call); 1 to send the
message into the phone's SMS area (usefull to send reminders and
notifications of stuffs happened);

If the channel needs to be answered to work in your environment then you
should call Answer before it. As for different behavior and putting into
the SMS/on display chan_sip simply sends a MESSAGE packet to the device. It
is up to the device how to present it and where to put it.
