I think we decided it would be best left mandatory, so that a server could
(if it chose to) recognize a 1.0 request (the one without a version
parameter). Even though we're not formally maintaining 1.0 compatibility,
we thought this could help avoid alot of confusion, or at least, give a
server a chance to be nice, if it chooses to. I think that in some future
version, when we are certain that there are no lingering 1.0 clients, we can
downgrade the parameter to optional.
