KIO::del without calling KIO::stat?

In the groupdav resource, I implement deleting an event from the groupware
server by a simple KIO::del( url, false, false ), which does a normal dav
delete on the server. Now the problem is that the DeleteJob first checks if
the url exists by calling KIO::stat.
The groupdav spec, however, does not require any groupdav server to even
support such a propfind request, so this violates the groupdav spec (and
actually fails with some GroupDAV implementations!). The client shall just
send the http delete to the server, and from the response code, one can see
the success anyway (and by the strong ETag matching, events are only deleted
if they are unchanged on the server).
So, is there any way to prevent KIO::del from calling KIO::stat before sending
the delete?
Thanks,
Reinhold
