I like REST, but I have many large Enterprise Systems that provide SOAP services, not REST. It would be great if FME had an easy-to-use interface for working with these SOAP services. I can use HTTPCaller now and it works, but requires more effort than I would like.

Great idea! Here is a tutorial on the current way of working with SOAP in FME:

Oh yes, SOAP is still unavoidable...
I use https://www.wsdl-analyzer.com/ as well. It is a bit of pain to save and upload the WSDL metadata but it makes things much easier than the hardcore XML job.
It would be nice if selecting an operation, and FME could convert the WSDL to an XMLTemplater with all the sub-templates and and fme:fme:process-features() in the templates ;) But I'm afraid a heavier operation could fill up the sub-template list.
