Self-answering after some research on this topic.

Seems like "Access-URL" isn't an official SIP header :
http://www.iana.org/assignments/sip-parameters/sip-parameters.xhtml#sip-parameters-2

This Dial() optional URL parameter looks like the same beast than SendURL() added nearly 10 years ago in asterisk SIP stack :

Is anyone aware of a SIP client which would open an URL sent by asterisk?


Thank you,
