Handle XML requests without sufficient service/version paramaters apprpriately
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Key: GEOS-1059
URL: http://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GEOS-1059
Project: GeoServer
Issue Type: Bug
Components: Global
Affects Versions: 1.5.0
Reporter: Saul Farber
Assignee: Saul Farber
Fix For: 1.5.1
WFS/WMS XML-POST requests without a service= and version= parameter on the root element cause an internal NullPointerException in the Dispatcher. After discussing options here: http://www.nabble.com/Forgiving-a-certain-kind-of-'bad'-WFS-request--tf3620858.html it was decided to nicely reject these kinds of request, even though we might be able to guess intelligently about their intended destination.
