[wsia][wsrp-interfaces] userHandle

[Rich Thompson <richt2@us.ibm.com>]

The security subgroup has been talking about how/when the user profile is
transfered/referenced. The last proposal I heard was that this reference
was not needed as once the profile is transferred, the entity may refer to
it in its opaque state in any manner it wishes. As to what profile elements
and when to transfer them, it has been proposed to use properties to
indicate what profile elements and have the Consumer set these properties
on or before the first getMarkup() invocation.

See my comments marked with [YT].
(Most of them are in appendix A, since it seems appendix a is the real
definition of the spec, which I think is wrong, and is a result of what
Rich mentioned below about the obscurity of the interface.)

The endless debate about putting WSIA concepts in the WSRP standard is
still there...

Subject: [wsia][wsrp-interfaces] Refactoring the data objects


As requested in Tuesday's Joint interfaces call, I have reworked the draft
spec in an effort to factor the data items into the scopes presented at the
June F2F. Personally I think this obscures too much and that some of the
data items should move up to first class parameters in the interface.
Hopefully this version can provide a reasonable basis for a discussion of
which items should be promoted either for clarity or as part of supporting
any factoring of the operations.

Technical note: In order to make this readable but yet leave an indication
of what was modified, I accepted the changes and then appended a space on
the end of changed lines so that a change bar will appear on the left. So
much changed in Appendix A that it all should be considered modified.
