Re: Action item - lc129

Looks good but I have a few tweaks for the final sentence.

I'd prefer a SHOULD for the faulting back to the client to encourage 
implementors to actually do this which I believe is important for 
interoperability. I'd also like to change 'uses' to 'includes' as the 
latter implies the check occurs before endpoint invocation which is 
'safer' than the check (and hence fault) occuring when attempting to 'use' 
the EPR to formulate a reply. With those comments and a little 
wordsmithing, my replacement last sentence is:

An endpoint SHOULD send a fault back to the client if a message received 
includes a response epr with an [address] that is unsupported by the 
endpoint.
