[NEW ISSUE] WS-RT: make 'mode' extensible

In WSRT the wsrt:Put/Fragment@Mode attribute can be "Remove", "Modify" or 
"Insert".  It might be possible that in the future that someone need to 
define a new type of mode. To support this extension we should make "Mode" 
a URI that is not limited to just the 3 values defined in RT.  Thus 
allowing others to define new ones.

Proposal:
Change wsrt:Put/Fragment@Mode from an enum of strings to xs:anyURI - ie. 
get rid of ModeType.
Define 3 URIs for the RT defined modes (remove, modify, insert).

thanks
-Doug
