I can send an XML via a URL. I do it with JavaScript.
I simply do:
my_A.href="some_page/?XML=" + doc.xml;
my_A is an ID of a Link tag

Yes, in fact I'd go further - I'm not even particularly committed to
SOAP, but I do care about the ability to send an XML request, so I would
be equally happy (in principle) if we (all) started calling our Web
Services by using POST with the XML as a MIME attachment, as John Cowan
pointed out on xml-dev. But until someone can find a way of sending an
XML block via a URL, then I need something more powerful than document().
