I beleive a definite answer on this issue is needed to foster SOAP interop. I would vote for disallowing it, just my opinion.

I am not an expert on the phrasing used in W3C standards, but I do not think that this means that a document using such a name is not "legal". Regardless of whether it is technically allowed, I suspect that various XML parsers will allow such names, and I know of no restrictions within Apache SOAP that prevent the use of such names. Therefore, I would expect the serializer to create such names.
