that would be quibbling, and we don't want that, now do we?

if I send you a SIP request with a location URI, you need to be able 
to dereference it (or at least try) before you accept the SIP 
request. I know it'll add a bit of time to the 200 OK, but that will 
allow confirmation of location delievery - which isn't the location 
URI, but the location value itself (i.e., the PIDF-LO). If the 
dereference fails after you've sent me a 200 OK, how can you possibly 
tell me that there was something wrong with my delivery of location to you?
