The extracted XML places XML attributes in the wrong locations. Consider the
raw format of a SOAP request:

0000  3c 53 4f 41 50 3a 45 6e  76 65 6c 6f 70 65 20 78   <SOAP:En velope x

The extracted XML should look like:

<SOAP:Envelope xmlns:SOAP="urn:schemas-xmlsoap-org:soap.v1"
xmlns="urn:schemas-xtrac-fmr-com:b2b"
SOAP:encodingStyle="urn:encodings-xtrac-fmr-com:v1.0"> etc.

Instead, the XML is represented both in the gui and in the file export like
this:

  <SOAP:Envelope>
        xmlns:SOAP="urn:schemas-xmlsoap-org:soap.v1"
        xmlns="urn:schemas-xtrac-fmr-com:b2b"
        SOAP:encodingStyle="urn:encodings-xtrac-fmr-com:v1.0"
        <SOAP:Body>

The extracted representation loses the attributes assocaited with the
SOAP:Envelope element, instead placing them as element content. This wreaks
havoc with anyone trying to parse or work with the infoset of the extracted
XML.
