| A SecurityHeaderException indicates that there is a problem with the
security header elements and subelements.
It indicates that there is an error in the input message to a MessageFilter.
For example, a ds:keyInfo element may not contain a reference to a
security token. If such a reference is missing, then to
indicate this problem, an instance of this Exception would be thrown.
This is as opposed to a problem with processing the message itself. An
example would be a MessageFilter that needs to look up data in a
database that is not currently available. A XWSSecurityException would
be thrown in the latter case.
