Hmm.

Also, the end of section 6.1 says:

    The answerer MUST send using a media format in the offer
    that is also listed in the answer,

Together, those contradict what I said above.

So I guess Harald gets his wish to be able to discard resources for 
codecs that weren't mentioned in the answer.

Unfortunately this also means it isn't possible to have asymmetric 
behavior. For instance, it means you can't have telephone-events work in 
one direction and not the other.
