Re: proposal: minor syntax improvement for soap fault bindings

I guess we kinda settled on the original proposal from Sanjiva on the 
call today but, I like this improvement. It satisfies the intent of 
Roberto's suggestion while keeping the separation between code and 
sub-codes.

as suggested, verbally on the telcon:

   <wsoap:code value="xs:QName" subcodes="list of xs:QName" />

solves the problem of the first value having a different meaning 
to the rest of the list.

How about a further improvement? Instead of

       <wsoap:code value="xs:QName">
         <wsoap:subcode value="xs:QName">
           <wsoap:subcode>...</wsoap:subcode>
         </wsoap:subcode>?
       </wsoap:code>

we do:

       <wsoap:code value="list of xs:QName">
       </wsoap:code>

I.e. the value of @code is a list of QNames, the first one being
the code and the other ones its subcodes. And of course we cshould
constrain the list to have length > 0.
