If you look at main/manager.c, AMI is using the security events framework.
AMI generates security events.  Then you have res/res_security_log.c, that
acts upon the events by logging them to a file.  You can turn on the file
log by using the level of "security" in the logger.conf.

By having chan_sip generate security events, any module written for Asterisk
will be able to act upon those events in whichever way you see fit.

I have posted a patch to the issue tracker: 
https://issues.asterisk.org/jira/browse/ASTERISK-18264

The reviewboard link is listed on that issue.
