[JRE] Most devices support transfer anyway, so it is a case of adding 3PCC support. Yes, that is non-trivial. But also adding support at a multi-media terminal for interworking with remote users where media are spread across 2 terminals is also non-trivial, and will multi-media terminal vendors be motivated to do this? > > > [JRE] I fear that a 2-dialog approach will be a complicated > mechanism > > that also requires special support from the remote UA. > Perhaps when we > > have explored the solution space further I will be proved right or > > wrong.

[JRE] I don't want to block any work on exploring the solution space for the general problem, which is for a user participating in a multi-media session to use different devices for different media. However, I would like the requirements expressed in a way that does not limit the solution space unnecessarily.
