There is a clear irritant in protocol-09 in that an XML Document
referred to as an "Introspection Document" has a root element named
<service> and contains collections grouped into workspaces. It arguably
sucks that the name of the document corresponds well neither with its
root nor its contents. Here are the things we could do:
1. Leave everything as is, it's just an irritant not actually a bug.
2. Leave the markup as is, but in the spec, rename the Introspection doc
the Service doc.
3. Leave the markup as is, but in the spec, rename the Introspection doc
the Workspaces doc.
4. Leave the markup as is, but in the spec, rename the Introspection doc
the Collections doc.
5. Leave the human-readable part of the spec as is and change the root
element to <app:instrospection>

+1 on 5 (assuming the spelling error is corrected) :-)
