1. Was your +1 for using a new attribute in the ProductSearch element or
for creating a new element altogether?
2. I agree that most of the time you are just looking for the latest
version so you can do a comparison. I am having trouble thinking of a use
case for returning all related products but I'm sure one exists...does
anyone have one?
3. I like how ProductSearch lets you get at other information as well (and
can see it being extended in the future to support more of the stuff here:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa370130%28v=vs.85%29.aspx).
That is why I think it would be nice to keep things in one element if
possible.
