How? How do you locate the target phone? Isn't this the problem we are
trying to solve?

For example (I'm not saying that this THE solution):

You can have a relay agent where the human names map
to MIPv6 home addresses of the target phones.

Using the proposed protocol, the target phone can return
another home address.

Infrastructureless solutions may also be possible, by
multicasting a query to the target human name..
