One thing I dont understand about MessageDefinition: How does this work for message validation? Can validators operate on the def alone or do we need a Bundle profile for that?
Or can the Bundle profile be somehow derived from the MessageDefinition? It seems like a lot of redundant work if we needed to maintain both...

The GraphDefinition should be sufficient to provide full validation - once the validator supports GraphDefinitions...

Damn, another thing my server needs to implement.

Do the validators use MessageDefinition or GraphDefinition to check the bundle contents? if not now - future plans?

Not the .NET one. And it's not on our short-term deliverable list. Which does not mean we wouldn't love a PR to add it ;-)

Java doesn't either. All of my messaging work is with a project using 2016May where neither resource is available or I'd probably have done it already. GraphDefinition is the real chunk of work - and it wouldn't be a minor enhancement. MessageDefinition just points to that or profile, so not much more to add for it.
