Firewall admins are going to want to know whether they should trust application/soap+xml content, so I want us to be frank about the implications of it. > I think sec3 is wrongly-oriented, but don't (yet) have alternative text > to propose. Then put on your thinkin' cap! 8-) I'm open to any any and all suggestions to improve on it. But I hope you agree that discussing what I explained to you is an important topic.
