As a model of RPC it makes me want to re-embrace CORBA. It's badly designed.

Having said that, if you work with simple subsets it's understandable, 
robust, and very widely supported. The use of XML is very defensible, IMO.

I've seen plenty of much more terrible protocols. SOAP doesn't even come 
close to some of the Cthulhian mind-blasting horrors I've dealt with.
