Just to split this into two decisions: -
Is there any reason the root element needs to be 'server' even though
the server definition differs depending on what is parsing it or should
we add a new root element 'client'?

Yeah feel the same on that one, trying to find a solution that isn't wrong.

Yes I was thinking something corse grained to the level of: -
parseProfile()
parseSocketBindings()
Each of these methods would then need to be responsible for their own
version check.
