/**
* Input is sent as an XML request to given URI, and the output of this
* filter is the parsed response to that request.
* A connection is opened to the remote URI when the startDocument call is
* issued through this filter, and the request is finished when the
* endDocument call is issued. Events should be written quickly enough to
* prevent the remote HTTP server from aborting the connection due to
* inactivity; you may want to buffer text in an earlier pipeline stage.
* If your application requires validity checking of such
* outputs, have the output pipeline include a validation stage.
*
* <p>In effect, this makes a remote procedure call to the URI, with the
* request and response document syntax as chosen by the application.
* <em>Note that all the input events must be seen, and sent to the URI,
* before the first output event can be seen. </em> Clients are delayed
* at least by waiting for the server to respond, constraining concurrency.
* Services can thus be used to synchronize concurrent activities, and
* even to prioritize service among different clients.
*
* <p> You are advised to avoid restricting yourself to an "RPC" model
* for distributed computation. With a World Wide Web, network latencies
* and failures (e.g. non-availability)
* are significant; adopting a "procedure" model, rather than a workflow
* model where bulk requests are sent and worked on asynchronously, is not
* generally an optimal system-wide architecture. When the messages may
* need authentication, such as with an OpenPGP signature, or when server
* loads don't argue in favor of immediate responses, non-RPC models can
* be advantageous. (So-called "peer to peer" computing models are one
* additional type of model, though too often that term is applied to
* systems that still have a centralized control structure.)
*
* <p> <em>Be strict in what you send, liberal in what you accept,</em> as
* the Internet tradition goes. Strictly conformant data should never cause
* problems to its receiver; make your request pipeline be very strict, and
* don't compromise on that. Make your response pipeline strict as well,
* but be ready to tolerate specific mild, temporary, and well-documented
* variations from specific communications peers.
