I think we must allow it. The use case I have in mind is when there is a 
header in the message that contains a URI, and the desire is to use a 
CID URI referencing a  body part in the message. (To avoid the need to 
have or access a separate server.

An example of this would be a Geolocation header. (Although the draft 
for that seems to have expired.)

I don't know if that precise case makes practical sense, but its an 
example of a general mechanism we have that should not be excluded.

Another example (though improbable) is an S/MIME body.

Yes, it is certainly true that sending a SDP for purposes of O/A is 
inappropriate in INFO.

Yes, I agree.
