+1

> Note that if it is put in 1xx responses that are not sent reliably, then in my understanding you have no means of telling you have lost it along with the response. So in this case it would have to be repeated in the final response. However there is probably a use case for being able to inform the user of call diversion at alerting time, so I would certainly allow it, i.e. MAY to generate it or add to it, MUST to pass one on if you receive it.

Would 100rel make any sense here?
