Asir,

I was in the process of writing a thorough explanation of why the spec
is the way it is, but I think you ran into a real issue.

At some point we allowed "generic" binding components (i.e. those with
an unspecified {interface} property) to contain Binding Fault and
Binding Operation components, but that functionality is gone (see third
paragraph of section 2.9.1). The use of QNames to refer to Interface
Fault/Operation(s) from in Binding Fault/Operation(s) is a vestige of
those days.

As things stand now, this use of QNames is inconsistent with the rest
of the specification, so I'd be in favor of using actual components
instead.

Unless I'm missing something, of course!

Roberto
