Rich, Mark,
Sorry I was not clear. The idea is that if a requester starts making
assumptions about what's inside the runtime EPR information (URI+ref. p.)
it may create a dependency on that specific EPR that may not hold if the
service needs to reissue or update the EPR for that requester. The result
is that the requester app will not be able to access the server with the
updated EPR. I think this is the key point to stress because it protects
the ability of the requester to reach the service in the presence of EPR
variability.
As long as that principle is clear, I see no risk in assuming that
requesters may be looking into the EPR to avoid conflicts with ID values,
building EPR "encoding schemes" (similar to URI encoding schemes), or the
like.
Paco

Why? I mean, what's the technical reason for this?
