Many applications will want to approach XP in a binding-independent 
manner.  I think it is therefore important to have a clean set of rules 
for the proper use and implications of headers/intermediaries, independent 
of the binding.  Indeed, the role of the binding should be to provide 
implementation of those semantics.
