If third party call control is used it is not known that the same end
points are communicating. Because of this it is never quite known what is
supported by the remote end point when offer is generated. Because of this
I would prefer this language to say that "Offerers should not make
assumptions about the support of SDP 'tls-id' attribute and MUST always use
SDP 'connection' attribute. To avoid ambiguity, answerers MUST always use
SDP 'connection' attribute as well.  NOTE: As defined in [RFC4145], if the
SDP 'connection' attribute is not explicitly present, the implicit default
value is 'new'."
