When constructing a message, if I should not have to choose between
building an XML document and encoding the same information in an URL
with query string parameters. I should be able to do the same thing all
the time for every message.

OK. First, we should be clear about exactly what is being compared here.
Are we comparing SOAP to the ad-hock sending XML messages? Are we
comparing SOAP to DCOM, CORBA, or other RPC protocols? Are we comparing
SOAP to a more RESTful methodology?
