We would like to see the "pattern" attribute of "operation" elements defaulted based on the contained <input> and <output> elements for those patterns where that is unambiguously possible. The component model will continue to have the current behavior - this is only a syntactic convenience. Requiring all users to remember the values of the pattern URIs when the value is patently obvious from the <input> and/or <output> elements makes the language overly cumbersome with no value. We would like this extra complexity removed. Note that this is only a default - if someone else were to define a pattern with only one <input> and no <output>s then they can still live happily with the user explicitly setting the value.
