SOAP messages must be serializable as XML (see [1]). From the XML Recommendation [2]: "[Definition: A Name is a token beginning with a letter or one of a few punctuation characters, and continuing with letters, digits, hyphens, underscores, colons, or full stops, together known as name characters.] Names beginning with the string "xml", or with any string which would match (('X'|'x') ('M'|'m') ('L'|'l')), are reserved for standardization in this or future versions of this specification." So, it's very clearly in the Recommendations if you know where to look.

I looked at the specification but I didn't find this restriction. Is it really against the specification to have a tag beginning with "xml" (in this case xmlPayload) in your SOAP message ?
