[asterisk-dev] Symmetric RTP behaviour and 'nat' peer option.

I agree that this patch is germane, but I think it is a little 
orthogonal to the problem I have.    Maybe it's just a philosophical 
difference.

Specifically, I do not *want* Asterisk to always retrain its outbound 
RTP destination ports on the source port of the incoming RTP.  This is 
what the patch appears to effect.  I don't think that should be the 
behaviour.  If I set nat=no, I don't want Asterisk to do anything 
"intelligent" like that.  I want it to behave strictly according to 
protocol mechanics and send the RTP to where the SDP says to send the 
RTP to.  If I set nat=yes, then it can do that.
