In many cases (including WebRTC) that would cause it not to work as a re-offer. Other issues like it A was receiving video, the old I frame state might end up getting used. If A was sending, it would not know the the other end was now missing reference frames.

Similar things would be done by webrtc so it could deal with it by just creating a new PC for the 2nd offer and transfering the tracks over to the new PC.

In principle this can be fixed by the B2BUA fiddling with the answer - 
rewriting the o-line as needed. OTOH, if it is doing that it can perhaps 
also rewrite the tls-id value if it isn't unique.
