    //      * most vendors don't care about the returned content-type of action since it is depreciated
    //        for Soap 1.2
    //
    //  The following express.use middleware will intercept the http headers and remove the additional
    //  action="/<action>" from the content-type if it sees it. This had to be done with express since
    //  node-soap removes all 'request' listeners from the server, therefore making it hard to intercept
