From Jason Miller "Third party Web Services would like to track their usage. If AIP Science Apps use their services, all their users will appear to be at AIP. We should pass through other information such as the source of the Science App or IP address of the user. This idea came up in our discussion with Nick Provart, whose web services do track usage."

We'll need to give this a thought. It's reasonable, of course, but it may be difficult to implement in the case of 'query' and 'generic' adapters in which the developer has total freedom to do the requests. 'map' and 'passthrough' are easier to control, because it's Adama who makes the actual request.

Agreed. Lets come back to it.
