Well, if debbugs.el would get an indication from soap-client.el, whether
a string was encoded as xsd:string or xsd:base64Binary, it could decode
the latter values itself. Less convenient, but so what.

Is there a way to tell soap-client.el, what to do with base64 encoded values?
Something like a user-defined function, or alike?
