I disagree with the classification of UT as a siluq. In my opinion, it is 
that, which can come after the siluq, the peti'hah liqdushah. It replaces the 
verse neqadesh et Shimkha ba'olam...

Some poster suggested that we therefore stand erect, with feet together for 
UT, as we would during neqadesh/naqdishakh/na'aritzekha. However, I am not 
convinced that we would already need to adopt that posture during the first 
verse, which is, after all, only a summons. The qedushah begins with qadosh, 
qadosh, qadosh.

Note that I left out keter from the above list, as some posters might want to 
differentiate between the different forms of qedoshah opening verses (but I 
am not sure that that would be convincing).
