Thanks for the info! I'm starting to gather that the SchemaTypeSystem 
that the XmlBeansSerializer uses to dynamically generate the wsdl could 
also be used to dynamically map all of the qnames to java classes. Neat.

Aside: XmlBeans is so nice to use. I'm seeing it used a fair bit with 
HTTP POST to remove the SOAP stack from the equation. The SOAP stack 
doesn't provide a single useful feature except so the java and .net 
folks can 'create client from wsdl'. With so many interoperability 
problems and buggy SOAP implementations it hardly seems worth it. Too 
bad the .net IDE can't create a client service given an XSD/element as 
the single argument for the HTTP POST data and an XSD/element for the 
return type. With that I could delete the SOAP stack and save myself a 
lot of headache.

Cheers.
