This is not so easy because it would involve changing the whole send
part of the transport api (right now the raw transport api does not know
anything about sip messages or extra flags).
I plan to do it along with full INADDR_ANY support (which would require lots
of small changes), but at some later undefined point in time. Async tls
would come before that.
