As for WHY you might do service invocation in a proxy -- perhaps  
you'd like calls that originate from your old phone (which has no  
knowledge of a recording service) to be recorded, but only when you  
call your lawyer.  Proxies can certainly do this. I'd maintain that  
this is one of the few reasons to actually use a proxy. If all the  
smarts were in the endpoints, we could eliminate proxies and use only  
location servers and TURN servers.
