I don't think that's true.  We are going to use (maybe) the ZeeRex record,
not the Explain service.  SRW wasn't going to have a separate database for
querying.  In SRW, we are going to send an empty query of the database we
connect to and return an Explain record.

The Explain models are different between SRW and classic Z39.50.
