The fact that JBR did it wrong in the first place does not mean that we should continue to do this, nor does it mean we are forced to. EBWS already uses a simpler (and cleaner) mechanism and we should be implementing something similar for the proxy work. The registry was only ever intended to contain EPRs for ESB specific services and that is how it should have remained. We now have code within SI which explicitly ignores EPRs that it 'guesses' may be external, rather than knowing for certain. Lets step back and work out what we need this to do and go from there.
