Nirav,

I agree with Lionel that what you propose would result in either a new
report-type or abatement algorithm.  There needs to be a way of telling
the reacting node why the new AVP is present.  There could be, for
instance, two different extensions that need the same AVP included in
the overload report.  We need a way of indicating to the reacting node
which of those extensions should be used.
