4 months ago it is called lazy parsing. Altering parser default headers parsing, should bring you to this level, but I could agree there could be some global level of control, to still preserve default behavior.
For now you can try customizing parser passed on UA.
Check option
WithHeadersParsers
Making this empty, basically removes any header value parsing and form of K:V will be preserved as received.
Calling Via() or From or any shortcut on request/response triggers lazy parsing on header value, but should not alter original form.
On sending there is some work You can build all headers manually before passing client.TransactionRequest or client.Do
Client should not override if all necessary headers are present. Via,From,To. etc
Of course probably there is some functionally where we replace headers with parsed so having some globals to alter this could be better way.
Leaving open
The request is to support serializing a SIP message with headers in their compact forms.
Potentially also storing in which form the header was parsed in to be transparent when receiving a message, altering it, and forward them back in their initial received form.
