    Jacques,
    
    I am not sure I understand your last comments below.  In WS-R, correlation 
    of the response using the "layer below" is unnecessary[1] in general. 
    While that may be the most obvious way to do some correlations, RM-Reply 
    information MUST be correlated with the original message using the 
    RefToMessageId mechanism because multiple RM-Replies may always be grouped 
    together.
    
    It is true, the business payload might be correlated using the underlying 
    protocol.  This results in a bizarre architectural layering: SOAP 
    extensions supporting the "infrastructure and the underlying protocol 
    supporting the "application".  It is also unspecified in the WS-Reliability 
    specification.  Other mechanisms (such as identifying the relevant request 
    in the first RM-Reply) are possible through out-of-band agreement.
    
    In short, "supported by the layer below" does not immediately imply 
    "necessary".  Could you please explain your thinking more completely?
    
    thanx,
    	doug
    
    [1] ... as in REQUIRED in the RFC 2119 sense
