I won't take a stand in the 3GPP walled garden vs. "real-word" SIP setups 
;-)
I just want to make sure that the path module keeps it's original purpose 
when moving the functionality.  If the functionality is already there (I 
don't know, I'm not a 3GPP expert), it should be straight-forward to keep 
it. That's why I suggested a chat with Dragos.
