The answer to the 2013 question is: if you can depend on this (I have
never seen it) you can script kamailio to make use of it.

The "default" config has rtpproxy on detected NAT as an example. But
personally I go for the always proxy option, it never failed so far
(except for misconfigured client side firewalls that wouldn't have
permitted p2p rtp anyway but now can easily fixed by permitting the
traffic from the rtp range of udp ports from the rtpengine/proxy
servers).

NAT detect example below (so take a look at nat_uac_test to see what
kind of tests there are):

route[NATDETECT] {
#!ifdef WITH_NAT
        force_rport();
        if (nat_uac_test("19")) {
                if (is_method("REGISTER")) {
                        fix_nated_register();
                } else {
                        if(is_first_hop())
                                set_contact_alias();
                }
                setflag(FLT_NATS);
        }
#!endif
        return;
}


route[NATMANAGE] {
#!ifdef WITH_NAT
        if (is_request()) {
                if(has_totag()) {
                        if(check_route_param("nat=yes")) {
                                setbflag(FLB_NATB);
                        }
                }
        }
        if (!(isflagset(FLT_NATS) || isbflagset(FLB_NATB)))
                return;

        rtpproxy_manage("co");
