    Dave,
    
    	I believe the RefToMessageId in an Acknowledgment "MAY" match
    the RefToMessageId in the MessageHeader/MessageData element. If memory
    serves this was to allow bundling an Ack with an unrelated message. I
    don't think bundling Acks with unrelated messages will be used very
    much, if at all. I agree with you that this "feature" adds unnecessary
    complexity and should probably be removed in the next version of the
    spec. In the last F-2-F we discussed the possibility of refactoring the
    MessageData element and moving it up a level. This is one way we could
    eliminate the RefToMessageId in the Acknowledgment element. Thoughts?
