I see SOAP messages travelling over arbitrary transport/application protocols (perhaps even as part of a single message exchange).

I want to build applications using SOAP without having to care about the semantics of what’s underneath. I perhaps care about the quality of service that the underlying protocols provide me (e.g. UDP vs TCP vs HTTP etc). However, such decisions may not have to be made until after I have developed my application.
