HTTPActionHandler and SOAPAction header

Question for the dev list.

If a service contains the HTTPActionHandler, and a simple GET ?wsdl 
query is issued (to that service) with no SOAPAction header, should the 
HTTPActionHandler be throwing a fault?

Meaning, what is the correct behavior in a query situation? It's not 
like in this case we are really trying to invoke the service, just 
discover what is required by the service.

I ask only because in Axis 1.1 this situation did not throw a fault, 
but in 1.2 it does.
Should queries always include a SOAPAction header? Or should the 
servlet try to perform url mapping for queries?
