Yes, but if you want to trace all requests that belong to a dialog then 
you have to connect the dots, since siptrace is not dialog aware. When 
one logs everything it doesn't matter, but when one only wants to log 
certain users, then you have to keep track of the dialog yourself in the 
script.

That's correct. If the global tracing flag is not set, but the user avp is 
set it will do per user tracing.
