It is exactly the "keep-pace-with-SIP-extentions" argument which makes me 
believe that we should stick to what we are doing. Whatever request is used 
(FOOBAR), if it bears a private IP address in Contact, it asks its
peer to send something there, which is a mistake. I don't see a case in
which non-routable contact is useful, unless overridden by RR-ing.

Which is correct, imho.
