It seems to me that the binding between SOAP and HTTP is unnecessarily
"coupled" due to the specification of a SOAP-specific HTTP Header (SOAP
ACTION:)...wouldn't the ideal situation be that a particular value or value
structure to an standard HTTP header would serve adequately?  What are the
reasons for a SOAP-specific HTTP header?
