The reason that HttpURLConnection was not used was because SOAP's fault handling rules weren't supported by that. Basically, the problem was the the URL connection class didn't let you access the data stream in case of a 500 error .. which is precisely how SOAP errors flow.
Apparently this has been fixed in a later JDK than the base that we wanted to support. It may be possible to change now .. (Matt wrote that part of the code; so he may recall more.)
