An intermediary being able to see a soap message isn't related to soap
itself. If the soap binding used is http, then an intermediary that can see
that could see the soap message as it could any other content. If a soap
message should not be changed, it can be signed. If it shouldn't be read,
it can be encrypted. SOAP mechanisms for both are being developed.
