That would make me happy - my bottom line is that I want to be able to 
access Web Services from XSLT. If we had a HTTP GET that was flexible 
enough to permit rich queries then this could be supported in WSDL - it 
could even be specified there if there is a new version coming out - and 
it would eventually be implemented straight out of the Web Services box.
