I don't think that's quite right. The MIME type says "use this for 1.2"
it doesn't say "you can't use it for 1.1" just like it doesn't say "you can't
use it for target practice."

Well, that would be up to SOAP 1.1 and its HTTP binding, not
the MIME type declaration...
Less flippantly, since you're defining a new way of using SOAP over
HTTP, you're quite free to use whatever MIME types you want.
BTW, if the SOAP request is the HTTP response, then where's the SOAP
response go?
