Hi, emacs!  I hope this is the right place to send feature requests.

I've been playing with Emacs 24's soap-client.el library, which is a
fantastic concept.

The "soap-load-wsdl-from-url" function seems to work in some cases,
but not in others.  I am certainly not an expert on SOAP or
soap-client but one thing that I've discovered is that it does not
seem to know about "simpleType".  (The term "simpleType" does not
appear in the source code.  The function soap-parse-schema looks at
only xsd:complexType and xsd:element.)

Here's an example of a WSDL that fails on a simpleType (called "AdultOption"):

    (soap-load-wsdl-from-url "http://api.search.live.net/search.wsdl")

Rather than parsing and returning a WSDL object, it gives a backtrace.
 Here's the top of it (the interesting part):

Debugger entered--Lisp error: (error
"Soap-wsdl-get((http://schemas.microsoft.com/LiveSearch/2008/03/Search
. AdultOption)): cannot find element")
  signal(error ("Soap-wsdl-get((http://schemas.microsoft.com/LiveSearch/2008/03/Search
. AdultOption)): cannot find element"))
  error("Soap-wsdl-get(%s): cannot find element"
("http://schemas.microsoft.com/LiveSearch/2008/03/Search" .
"AdultOption"))
  (if element nil (error "Soap-wsdl-get(%s): cannot find element" name))
  (unless element (error "Soap-wsdl-get(%s): cannot find element" name))
  (let ((alias-table ...) namespace element-name element) (when
(symbolp name) (setq name ...)) (when use-local-alias-table (setq
alias-table ...)) (cond (... ... ... ... ...) (... ... ...) (t ...))
(setq element (soap-namespace-get element-name namespace ...)) (unless
element (error "Soap-wsdl-get(%s): cannot find element" name)) (if
(soap-namespace-link-p element) (soap-wsdl-get ... wsdl predicate)
element))

[...and more...]

I've found that with my own application's WSDL, if I comment out all
uses of simpleType, then soap-client.el can load it just fine.

I have no idea how hard it would be to implement simpleType, but it
would definitely be very useful!  I may take a stab at this myself,
but no promises.
