[Jerry Richards]

Okay.  Is it okay to send NOTIFYs (with proprietary payload) whose
subscription is implicitly active upon successful registration?

Absolutely cannot send an INFO outside of a dialog.

See http://tools.ietf.org/html/draft-ietf-sipcore-info-events-00 for what
INFO is good for, when to use it, and what alternatives exist (like if you
need to send something outside of a dialog).
