 IMHO the real answer would have been a generic XML structure
with every parameter allowed to specify its encodingStyle.

 This is pretty much the same as a generic compound type in the
terms of flexibility (with the added possibility of attributes
like thisIsTheReturnValue="true") but we would gain the
independence from SOAP Encoding/Data Model. I don't think generic
compound type adds any value over generic XML.

 I did in fact suggest this almost a year ago but it was rejected 
in the RPCTF because a struct is easier to handle a more logical 
for an RPC, if I recall correctly.
