They *ARE* part of the address information. I don't really see the difference. If when they are used they become SOAP headers how can they be view any other way? I believe you said you wanted to use the SOAP processing model to process them and that processing model is (excluding the Body stuff) all about how/when to process headers. Personally, I think reading the text for wsa:Action and interpretting it to mean "dispatch data" and then going even further to meaning that it can become "the payload" to the point where the Body is empty (ala WS-MDEX) is reading far more into wsa:Action than reading "ref.props. are headers" from the ref.props defintion. In both cases the text is sufficiently vague to allow all sorts of readings and I'm hoping the WG will, after the votes and hanging chads are counted, make the text explicitly clear. -Dug
