[Freeswitch-users] setting contact header

[Anthony Minessale]

That is not currently possible only because there was no reason to make that
configurable and it's not acceptable.

The called party should *NOT* be forcing the calling party to use a certain
contact, the contact is the calling parties business.

If we did support that it would have to fall under the NDLB "No Device Left
Behind" series of configuration options designed for interop with
less-than-compliant SIP UA and it would be quite hard to do right because in
reality the profile is the true SIP UA not each call.  So the contact
address is the url of the profile that should not change at all among
different calls.  Support for this could cause a regression that breaks 100
other complicated SIP scenarios.
