               The idgen attribute control how a WFS generates identifiers
               from newly created feature instances using the Insert action.
               The default action is to have the WFS generate a new id for
               the features.  This is also backward compatible with WFS 1.0
               where the only action was for the WFS to generate an new id.

            <xsd:documentation>
               The handle attribute allows a client application
               to assign a client-generated request identifier
               to an Insert action.  The handle is included to
               facilitate error reporting.  If an Insert action
               in a Transaction request fails, then a WFS may
               include the handle in an exception report to localize
               the error.  If no handle is included of the offending
               Insert element then a WFS may employee other means of
               localizing the error (e.g. line number).

            <xsd:documentation>
               This inputFormat attribute is used to indicate 
               the format used to encode a feature instance in
               an Insert element.  The default value of
               'text/xml; subtype=gml/3.1.1' is used to indicate
               that feature encoding is GML3.  Another example
               might be 'text/xml; subtype=gml/2.1.2' indicating
               that the feature us encoded in GML2.  A WFS must
               declare in the capabilities document, using a 
               Parameter element, which version of GML it supports.

              EITHER PROJECT INTO THE STORAGE SRS OR RAISE AN EXCEPTION.
