Do we state specifically the behavior of COPY and MOVE when acting on a versioned resource versus behavior when acting on a revision? As an example, if versioned resource A has three revisions, each revision has its own unique URL. If I perform a COPY or MOVE using the URL for, say, the second revision, does that just copy or move that specific revision? If so, does that create a new versioned resource? And if the operation was a MOVE, is that revision no longer a revision in the source revision set? Also, my understanding is that each versioned resource will have a unique URL as well as each revision of that versioned resource having its own URL. Is that everyone's understanding? If so, and I use the URL of the versioned resource in a MOVE or COPY, does that move or copy the entire versioned resource or do we interpret the lack of a version identifier to mean, "this URL refers to the default revision"?
