I think the sip server implementations are pretty good here. Besides
that, for client interaction it is required only DNS server
configuration, nothing in sip server.
What I meant is the headache for sip server providers to deploy two
different fault tolerant solution:
- one based on DNS
- one based on shared/virtual IP or load balancer
Each of them will require maintenance, man power, etc... Anyway, even
with second option, good DNS in phones does not harm.

However, being out there so many phones without
such support, it is
practically unusable since service providers won't deploy different server
solutions for each group of devices, so they stick to one size fits all and
that is not DNS for now.
Devices don't implement it, so service providers don't implement it,
so devices don't implement it, so... XD
Proper DNS support should be enforced somehow
(who knows how?!?) before
anything else. At the end, DNS drives the IP world.
IMHO RFC 3263 complexity doesn't help too much.
