The requirement to express the capability of XMPP messaging in SIP 
described below also may need  an extension for declaration of 
capability details.

REQ-y: Negotiable features  in XMPP must be possible to express and 
interrogate at SIP Session establishment level.

Use case:  Alice want to send a nice HTML-formatted invitation letter to 
Bob. She wonders if she can do it in a SIP session with messaging 
enabled. Therefore, when she calls Bob, she indicates a desire to use 
Rich formatted messages. The resonse shows that Bob has no capability 
for such features, so Alice decides to send an e-mail instead and 
discuss it in a plain vice phone call.
