Okay.  I did open up a JIRA issue request
(https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CXF-3312) based on text from our
group related to a different system, "validate published WSDL files for
compliance with WS-I Basic Security Profile".

Perhaps the requirement is invalid, and so should be the issue?  I
guess CXF-3312 could be closed as invalid?
