Backwards compatibility to what? At the current time, there is a fair amount of work in the WG to provide better guidelines for both the SIPS URI as well as certificate use in SIP.

introducing this URI label? Even a host may have many DNS aliases,

A host may have many DNS aliases, yes. But if it is inserting its URI in a R-R header, it can pick the alias whose canonical name appears in the certificate.

Thanks.
