As a practical matter, nearly every country already does that, because of
the 1-1-2 action in mobile phones, so I think it's a practical answer.

I just noticed that Spencer's first mail was off-list and so was my reply.

My question there was: do you think every country having subservices

I certainly agree that having a urn:service:sos would make things easier.
