Just a word of warning.  Hash tables are not a standard interop type.  
You will loose compatibility between SOAP implementations.  I suggest

Fair enough.  I am having a bit of trouble "getting it" - how would my 
WSDL types section look if I were doing that?

For reference, I have kept the server's response below:

I said:
The request:
