Imagine a forked call. If the call in canceled, ser has to wait for the 
487 messages from all branches. Only after it received the 487 from all 
branches, it will send a 487 to the caller.

What would be the difference if it would come end2end? The caller will 
receive a 487 which will match the call-id and from tag (I think the 
to-tag will be the to-tag of the last 487 received from called parties).

Thus, the caller can not distinghuish if it is generated from ser or 
from a caller.
