Any meaningful application is going to maintain whitelists or blacklists
of allowed URIs and we want to do this, but outside of a WS-Addressing EPR 
or WSDL binding. 

As for other specs defining URIs which WS-Addressing has
to understand as being an alias for "anon", no thanks!

Absolutely, 100%. Let's be blunt - anything else is going to be DOA.

Hmmm. A WSDL marker that can be used inside Policy? Maybe. 
A marker on the wire, well we shipped 1.0 without one. 
So, no thanks!

+1 Splitting the issue may be helpful if the protagonists agree.
