At least in WS-Addressing this information does indeed flow as a part of the message: see the <wsa:Action> header (and the <wsa:RelatesTo> header). However, we're not about to expand our scope to cover that space .. so I am not looking for us to define a SOAP header for these .. I was looking for an abstract thing that works and a concrete thing that we already have (soapAction). Sanjiva.
