That would be unusual. I can imagine though that an application would easily
be designed to expect only entry documents for specific situations. An
editor application, for example, would know how to handle collection feeds
and entry documents, but would reasonably not be expected to know what to do
if it retrieved a feed document when attempting to edit a specific entry
(especially if it PUT/POSTed the entry as an entry document in the first
place).

Similarly, if an atom:entry element was wrapped inside some other unexpected
XML document (eg. RSS 1.0) ... should applications be prepared to cope with
that?
