I was just wondering if there is any merit in using envelopes to chunk the
total payload rather than nesting them - so you would be chaining envelopes.
An example use case may a mass data transfer where you don't want to have to
materialize the entire body in order to check a trailing signature - this
could be chunked transparently and delivered to the consumer in a streaming
fahsion.

I'm starting to skim WS-Security and it looks nightmarish.  For Hessian, I'm
thinking the following envelope syntax might make sense:

envelope ::=
  'E' x02 x00      # Envelope for Hessian 2.0
  method           # envelope type (possibly use string instead of 'm')
  int              # number of headers
  (string object)* # header values
  binary           # encapsulated body
  int              # number of footers
  (string object)* # footer values
