If the proposed change has no effect on the response, then it does
nothing and is not needed.

But you don't want to host the SRU response. You want to host something
that looks sort of like an SRU response, but isn't.

If they don't conform to the SRU schema, then they aren't SRU compliant.

I still don't understand why you can't generate any sort of JSON or ATOM
or RSS response you want without changes to SRU. Show me any example of
a response and I'll create the stylesheet that generates it from an
existing SRU response. Please!
