[Bug 6500] New: MEX: Wrappers around GetMetadata

http://www.w3.org/Bugs/Public/show_bug.cgi?id=6500

           Summary: MEX: Wrappers around GetMetadata
           Product: WS-Resource Access
           Version: FPWD
          Platform: PC
        OS/Version: Windows NT
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: MetadataExchange
        AssignedTo: public-ws-resource-access-notifications@w3.org
        ReportedBy: geoffbu@microsoft.com


Description:
There is a similar issue 6398, which involves putting a wrapper around Transfer
messages for both WSI BP compliance and extensibility reasons.  It would seem
that we should also make GetMetadata request and response messages do the same
thing, as currently they are not extensible.  In Section 5.2 of
WS-MetadataExchange these messages look like:

[action]
  http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2004/09/mex/GetMetadata/Request
[Body]
  <mex:GetMetadata …>
    (<mex:Dialect>xs:anyURI</mex:Dialect>
      (<mex:Identifier>xs:anyURI</mex:Identifier>)?
    )?
  </mex:GetMetadata>

[action]
  http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2004/09/mex/GetMetadata/Response
[Body]
    <mex:Metadata …>
    …
    </mex:Metadata>


Proposal:
Add wrappers and extension points as necessary to these messages:

[action]
  http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2004/09/mex/GetMetadata/Request
[Body]
  <mex:GetMetadata …>
    (<mex:Dialect>xs:anyURI</mex:Dialect>
      (<mex:Identifier>xs:anyURI</mex:Identifier>)?
    )?
    xs:any *
  </mex:GetMetadata>

[action]
  http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2004/09/mex/GetMetadata/Response
[Body]
  <mex:GetMetadataResponse ..>
      <mex:Metadata …>
      …
      </mex:Metadata>
      xs:any *
  </mex:GetMetadataResponse>
