Re: Action without UsingAddressing

In that case two WSDL processors can process the same WSDL differently. 
For instance, one WSDL processor may ignore wsaw:Action and the other 
processor may use it for sending SOAP messages. Is that an acceptable 
behavior ?

Since wsaw:UsingAddressing is the normative way to define the intent to 
conform to WS-Addressing, I think we need to define a consistent 
behavior in the WSDL binding to that effect. Basically stating that 
wsaw:Action on an operation need to be processed only if 
wsaw:UsingAddressing exists. Is that too strong a statement ?
