I agree that the spec places such burden in the case of session/cookie 
faults, but the spec was more explicit about those.

But I still don't see the connection between StateChangeRequired fault 
and cloning from the consumer's perspective. What we need is perhaps a 
"CloneRequired" fault to unambiguously indicate that the consumer must 
clone and retry.
