Nobody's added to the "text media" dissector a call to register "application/soap+xml" as a media type that should be shown as raw text.Perhaps none of the people who've added stuff to that dissector had dealt with SOAP-based Web services and needed something to show the XML text of SOAP requests and responses. I've checked in a change to do that; that means it'll show the text, line by line."

 Does it mean that the next release will dealt with Soap ?

It means that the next release should display the text of SOAP requests and replies as text, if the requests and replies have the right content type. It won't do anything more than that unless and until somebody writes and contributes or checks in code to do that.
