Jeff,

I'm not well-versed on the intentions of xsi other than indicating type...I never 
thought about it in a class/subclass context.  I stand corrected.  I was thinking that 
there was an implied understanding of a given type due to the rules laid out in the 
<types> section of my WSDL doc.

Thanks for the input, it's certainly welcome,
Cory

Could you clarify why you don't think attributes such as xsi:type should be
valid in doc/lit.

Suppose your document is described by

<element foo type='bar'/>

<complexType name="bar" abstract="true">
   ...
</complexType>

<complexType name="bar1"
  <extension base="bar">
     ...
  </extension>
</complexType>

... other types derived from bar ...

Then you might have a document
<foo xsi:type="bar1">...</foo>

where the xsi:type told which derived type was being used.

 I guess my question is -- is xsi still valid in a doc/lit operation?  It
doesn't seem like it would be.
