IIRC, some SIP providers "successfully" register all attempts as a
security/DOS protection technique (obviously, later, when an
[unauthorised] call is attempted, it fails.).

Perhaps, because there is never a SIP password authentication challenge,
this is why Linphone never prompts for a password.

It seems that persisting an account's password should be decoupled from
the future possibility of any provider needing it.  I.e. the password is
a property of the account, not the provider's implementation (SIP
stack's behaviour) at some arbitrary point in the future.
