Re: [issue 6432] - a modest proposal

I am not sure how easy it is.
If the "OPTIONAL" fault behavior is implemented, then, sure there is a  
list of possible behaviors, but if it is not, then how do you guess?,  
keep trying each behavior you know about in sequence?
Seems like a restaurant without a menu.
I would like an omelet
-fault-
I would like a salad
-fault-
how about a milk shake?
-fault-

I would prefer going in that it was an Ice-cream shop
Flavors?
<flavors>
<vanilla/>
<chocolate/>
<rumRaisin/>
</flavors>

I then would be assured that in only one exchange I would find out if  
there were any flavors I like.
