Why does Poll Request need Message header
We agreed that the rm response, which is not itself a reliable message, 
should not send the Message Header.

We moved the reply pattern to be an attribute of the response header.

Now I ask a new question,  if a poll request is not piggybacked on a 
reliable message request., why does it need a message header?

There is no meaning to expiry time for the poll request, and there is no 
need for a message id for the poll request itself.

It would simplify the protocol if the poll request message, which is not 
itself piggybacked on a new reliable message request, does not include
the request header.

What do you think of this?
