I would like to know how can we get the backward compatibility solved 
here. No matter what is said about minimal sets and standards, User-Name 
is mandatory to be able to make use of the accounting and match it to the 
user that should be billed. All the fields in the minimal set that was 
proposed do not permit to identify the caller that should be billed.

Currently it is taken from the credentials username or if that is not 
present from the From field's username. So what is the value (pseudo 
variable) we can attach to an extra User-Name attribute we send to radius 
accounting to get the old behavior without resorting to contorted tests 
and avp manipulations in the script?
