My opinion is (3). (2) is totally inappropriate and (1) seems a little odd.

There is a fourth option: pull the SRV type definition out of CardDAV (so 
it is non-blocking) and put it in 
<http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-daboo-srv-caldav> which (along with 
<http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-daboo-srv-email>) could reasonably block 
on the proper iana-ports registry document. Even with that I still prefer 
(3).
