Yes, something like that, except usable by anyone not just WS-Addressing.

What does "lightweight function" mean?  Do you mean an HTTP GET request?
A new "WS-Addressing GetMetadata" operation?  WS-A would either have to reference an external function or create it's own.  

I'm pretty sure that the WSA charter doesn't include defining or referencing new operations.
