It's clear that TransactionID is mandatory, but can it be empty?

For example (I will post only SOAP/XML part):

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<env:Envelope xmlns:env="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/">
<env:Header>
<mm7:TransactionID xmlns:mm7="http://www.3gpp.org/ftp/Specs/archive/23_series/23.140/schema/REL-5-MM7-1-2" env:mustUnderstand="1"></mm7:TransactionID>
</env:Header>
<env:Body>
<RSErrorRsp xmlns="http://www.3gpp.org/ftp/Specs/archive/23_series/23.140/schema/REL-5-MM7-1-2">
<MM7Version>5.3.0</MM7Version>
<Status>
<StatusCode>4004</StatusCode>
<StatusText>Validation error</StatusText>
</Status>
</RSErrorRsp>
</env:Body>
</env:Envelope>

My interpretation is no.

If you were to use HTTP pipelining on an MM7 connection (not that many MMSCs support it), the TransactionID header in the response is how you would match up requests with the correct responses.

Some MMSC implementations might let you get away with a blank TransaictionID, but I would not count on this.
