I think the strong implication here is that TLS is to be used in the 
same way that TLS is used in other SIP applications (in the same way 
that an HTTP document saying "MUST use TLS" is pretty clearly saying to 
use HTTPS as per the existing HTTP RFCs).

Unfortunately, the TLS handling for SIP is mixed into RFC 3261 all 
_over_ the place, so there's not anything particularly comprehensive to 
point to. The best that I think could be said would be something along 
the lines of "...the usage of TLS, as described in section 26 of 
[RFC3261], is REQUIRED."

Would that satisfy your concern?
