Although it is most definitely a good idea to have ACK for 200 OK be 
handled by the application layer, I do not see its significance in a 
B2BUA as mentioned in the original post.  It will only be significant if 
the implementation is a Proxy.  In which case, ACK needs to be processed 
hop by hop to assure that every entity in the call path know that the 
ultimate endpoint has received the 200 Ok.     It would be interesting 
to know if there are other reasons.
