And it does not solve NAT neither allows IPv4/IPv6 interoperability.
Why to make SIP devices to implement that instead of ICE (or
ICE-Lite)?

ICE was designed for SIP but now there are much more XMPP clients
implementing it than SIP... how much must we wait in SIP? now it's
clearly the moment but instead of endorsing ICE, do we really prefer
to create a new pseudo-spec just to make SIP devices RTC-web
compliant? And then, what will we do when IPv6 arrives?

I strongly vote for using ICE and requiring ICE in SIP world (they
just MUST, this is the time).
