in the common case of a SOAP based service, how common are these quirks?

e.g. would we be able to get away with a "give me this web service" method 
call that take a JOLIE script as an optional parameter?

*thinks*

in fact, we could even do this with a bit of magic, making the optional 
parameter even more.. uh .. optional:

* if the applet has a package and
         the package includes a JOLIE script of the same name
* or there is a matching file in the $APPDATADIR/jolie/ file
* then use the JOLIE script automatically
