       It might be desired, but it's certainly NOT a simplification, since
       compliant software will now have to handle two different formats.
    
    Actually, it seems to me that this question really ought to be decided
    by the "SOAP 1.1 With Attachments" specification, since the question
    of whether to use a multipart-with-one-part arises not only for ebXML
    but anything else using "SOAP 1.1 With Attachments".  Unfortunately
    their spec does not seem to deal with the issue, as far as I was able
    to tell from looking at it.
