Hi Jan-Pascal,
>For this I need to access the data that PROPFIND or SEARCH
I would think that sending all of the data unimpeded would probably the best
way, as you say. Is there a limit on the metadata? The easiest way might be
to just pass all of the response XML as "davResponse" or similar. That way we
don't have to bloat http.cc with heaps of interpreting code likely to only be
used in one place.

I don't think this is too much of a consideration. Still, we could have
metadata "davRequestResponse", which directs kio_http to respond with the
"davResponse" metadata, sound good?

No need.

A stat is performed before most file operations, so no, but if we make it that
the app requests the full data first, it should be fine. Ok?
Cheers,
Hamish.
