Should ClientBase<T> be exposed to implement IDisposable in contract

[zhenlan]

Here is a feedback from a customer using WCF connected service

I noticed that connection management has changed slightly. The codegen’d webclient objects don’t implement IDisposable. We can always wrap the client object to provide this capability, but it’d be super convenient if the codegen did this for us.

It looks like ClientBase<T> does not implement IDisposable in contract but its implementation does have IDisposable. Would like to see if there is any particular reason for this.

We will update ClientBase<T> to implement IDisposable in contract.

Has this been released yet? Using System.ServiceModel.Primitives version 4.1.1 and ClientBase doesn't implement IDisposable
