Issue i099 - Detail for header related faults in SOAP 1.1

SOAP 1.1 indicates that the detail element must not be
used to convey error information related to header entries. As most of the
faults we have defined in WS-RM are related to header entries how should that information
be conveyed? Should this just go into the SequenceFault element defined in
section 4.1?

 

I think the only fault that seems related to body
processing where detail would be used is the create sequence refused, which
amusingly defines detail as xs:any. It does seem that for completeness the detail
element should still be captured in the example of a SOAP 1.1 fault for create
sequence in section 4.
