according to dialog matching in RFC3261, this should be ok, but 
somewhere is a mention about backward compatibility with rfc2453, where 
the from should not be changed.

However, if you have only rfc3261 endpoints, then you are safe to change 
the From, if not, try uac module, as it does automatic replacement and 
recovery.

Daniel
