NEW ISSUE: How to determine the value of the [reference parameters] property from WSDL?

During last week's concall I took an action to raise an issue regd the 
determination of the value of the [reference parameters] property by 
looking at the WSDL description. Here it is:

* Title - How to determine the value of the [reference parameters] 
property from WSDL?

* Description -
The WSDL binding spec does not define how to determine the value of the 
[reference parameters] property when sending messages to a Web service 
described in WSDL (and when WS-Addressing is also being used for that 
Web service).

* Justification -
The WSDL binding spec [1] says: "Web Services Addressing 1.0 - WSDL 
Binding (this document) defines how the abstract properties defined in 
Web Services Addressing 1.0 - Core are described using WSDL."
The [reference parameters] property is allowed when using WS-Addressing 
[2], but the WSDL binding spec does not define how this abstract 
property is described using WSDL.

* Target -
WSDL Binding

* Proposals -

Here are two proposals to resolve this issue:

1) Modify the proposal at [3] (for issue i021) as follows:
i) allow the element wsaw:UsingAddressing to be a child element of 
wsdl20:endpoint/wsdl11:port
ii) create an optional child element 
wsaw:UsingAddressing/wsa:ReferenceParameter. The value of this element, 
if present, specifies the value of the [reference parameters] property.

2) Allow the wsa:EndpointReference element to be included as the child 
element of wsdl20:endpoint or the child element of wsdl11:port. When 
using the wsa:EndpointReference in an wsdl20:endpoint/wsdl11:port the 
usual WS-Addressing/binding rules apply.
