Ok, let's say it is an address (in IETF terminology)

Just for avoidance of doubt:
A construct like sip:+1-232-555-1234 at foo.com;user=phone
does NOT indicate that foo.com is necessarily the 
carrier-of-record hosting the E.164 number. Therefor
your next statement does not hold for the to-field
(it may be true for the from field)

Examples: this URI may be used to send a request from a UA to his proxy
in which case foo.com in most case does not have the ownership,
it is just indicating the digit dialled.
It is also used to send an invite to a gateway to the PSTN,
etc.

Will do and come back later on the CLI issue.
