The caller preferences specification for the Session Initiation
Protocol (SIP) allows a caller to express preferences that the call
be routed to a User Agent (UA) with particular capabilities.
Similarly, a specification exists to allow a UA to indicate its
capabilities in a registration.  Amongst those capabilities are the
type of media streams the agent supports, described as top-level MIME
types.  The 'application' MIME type is used to describe a broad range
of stream types, and it provides insufficient granularity as a
capability.  This specification allows a UA to indicate which
application subtypes the agent supports.  [STANDARDS TRACK]
