[asterisk-users] Adding ;password=foo;method=bar to SIP uri

[Matthew Rubenstein]

	Is there any reason that the SIP INVITE URL shouldn't conform to the
same syntax as RFC3986 standard URLs
( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/URI_scheme#Generic_syntax ), as specific
to SIP according to RFCs 3969 and 3261? That would be, according to

------------------------------------------------------------------------
sip:<user>[:<password>]@<host>[:<port>][;<uri-parameters>][?<headers>] 

examples:
sip:alice at atlanta.com?subject=project%20x&priority=urgent
sip:+1-212-555-1212:1234 at gateway.com;user=phone
------------------------------------------------------------------------

Like

sip:xyz:foo at abc.com;Authorization=bar+realm%3Dbaz

OR

sip:xyz:foo at abc.com;?Authorization:+bar;realm%3Dbaz

or something along those lines, as per
http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc3261#page-194 ?
