Can't consume GlassFish generated WSDL from .NET

I am trying to add a web service reference to my C# application in Visual Studio. The web service is hosted on Sun's GlassFish server. Unfortunately Visual Studio produces the following warning when I try to add the service reference:

Custom tool warning: The following Policy Assertions were not Imported:
  XPath://wsdl:definitions/wsdl:binding[@name='SecurityWebServicePortBinding']/wsdl:operation[@name='RegisterUser']
  Assertions:
    <wsat:ATAlwaysCapability xmlns:wsat='http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2004/10/wsat'>..</wsat:ATAlwaysCapability>

Apparently it cannot understand policy assertions in the WSDL published by the GlassFish server. Here's an excerpt from the WSDL:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?>

    ...

        <operation name="RegisterUser">

            <soap:operation soapAction="RegisterUser" />
            <input>

            </output>
            <fault name="UsernameExistsException">
                <soap:fault name="UsernameExistsException" use="literal" />
            </fault>
        </operation>
    </binding>

    ...

</definitions>

If I remove all the policy elements from the WSDL, Visual Studio is able to consume the service without any problems (in fact earlier I used to write the WSDL by hand and never put the policy statements). So my questions are:

1. Why is GlassFish insisting on adding the policies? Is there any way to suppress them?
2. Why is Visual Studio not able to consume the WSDL with the policies?

ws-AT (Atomic Transactions) seems to be part of the SOAP specification which WCF does not know about. There is some information here - http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2004/10/wsat/

Update: Actually WCF is aware of the ws-AT spec, but doesn't support it fully (http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/ws/2004/10/wsat/). I suppose this is because WCF has alternatives which use OleTransactions.

Ok, I figured out why GlassFish is adding the ws-AT policies. My web service is being generated using an EJB (see below):

@Stateless
@WebService
public class SecurityWebService {
    ...
}

Since the default transaction attribute for a stateless EJB method is REQUIRED, GlassFish is making the web service method transactional too (see here for details). Not the behavior I want, but that's how it is!
