Until WS-MetadataExchange (and Dilip's implementation in Plumbwork Orange),
there only mechanism of requesting policy from a service endpoint was
through WS-PolicyAttachment. That stated, there is support for
WS-PolicyAttachment in the WSE, albeit indirectly, by implementing the
Microsoft.Web.Services2.Messaging.SoapService.GetDescription method.
