I want to add that in the CalDAV case this URI naming restriction will also 
apply to COPY and MOVE methods too, not just PUT. So we do need to come up 
with a solution that at least works with those methods too. Of course it is 
possible to emulate COPY and MOVE using PUT (client downloads original 
data, creates it in new location) and DELETE (remove old data in the case 
of MOVE) - but we should really have the proper atomic operations for this.
