I'd suggest requiring credible identification of the individual and of the credentialling agency.  (Not every gateway will necessarily honor credentials from every issuer.)   Different gateways could then apply different policies based on those and on message contents, including potentially special CAP parameters or other fields as desired locally.

Thanks!
