I know that in the WMS specification, ServiceExceptions are supposed to be 
returned with HTTP Status Code 200 OK. I would be surprised if it were 
different for WCS.

If a server gets a WCS request that generates a Service Exception Message, what should the HTTP response code be? 400 - "Bad Request" ?? Is this in the spec somewhere ?
