Uhhhh, I've looked over this twice and come up with nothing. Just some redness, but there are eye drops for that. I'd get another look though.

    I'm not a huge fan of calling this nonstandard, purely because it's so generic and could apply to other stuff. Might as well just go ahead and call it eyebeam since that is where it originated.

> When the PJSIP pubsub framework was created, subscription handlers were required to state what event they handled along with what body types they knew how to generate. While this serves well when implementing a base RFC, it has problems when trying to extend the body to support non-standard or proprietary body elements. The code also was NOTIFY-specific, meaning that when the time comes that we start writing code to send out PUBLISH requests with MWI or presence bodies, we would likely find ourselves duplicating code that had previously been written.
> 
> This changeset introduces the concept of body generators and body supplements. A body generator is responsible for allocating a native structure for a given body type, providing the primary body content, converting the native structure to a string, and deallocating resources. A body supplement takes the primary body content (the native structure, not a string) generated by the body generator and adds nonstandard elements to the body. With these elements living in their own module, it becomes easy to extend our support for body types and to re-use resources when sending a PUBLISH request.

> Body generators and body supplements register themselves with the pubsub core, similar to how subscription and publish handlers had done. Now, subscription handlers do not need to know what type of body content they generate, but they still need to inform the pubsub core about what the default body type for a given event package is. The pubsub core keeps track of what body generators and body supplements have been registered. When a SUBSCRIBE arrives, the pubsub core will check that there is a subscription handler for the event in the SUBSCRIBE, then it will check that there is a body generator that can provide the content specified in the Accept header(s).
