I think the document should also describe SDP, and if someone thinks
alternative doesn't work (or that some other mechanism is far better)
with SDP it should be described.

Also, we now have a number SDP extensions, related to grouping,
alternatives and capabilities, so it would probably somehow be a good
idea to collect a description/comparition of them in some document.
