Re: [wss] Critical ISSUE (RE: [wss-comment] Enumerations of QNamefault codes)

["Eve L. Maler" <Eve.Maler@Sun.COM>]

I guess this would *nominally* help because it would allow both 
wsse:faultCodeNumberOne and ws:faultCodeNumberOne, but it begs the 
question of defining an enumeration in the first place since it also 
allows all other QNames, and still makes the wsse: prefix a unique 
first-class citizen.  Also, would wsse:faultCodeNumberOne be recognized 
as a QName itself -- and thus equivalent to ws:faultCodeNumberOne -- if 
it were merely designated an enumeration string?
