Re: redirect references protocol: MKRESOURCE issue

I would suggest that we resolve these issues as follows:

- allow PROPPATCH to update the DAV:reftarget property

- have an additional property that specifies the status that
will be returned, e.g. DAV:redirectref-status
that has an integer value of either 301 or 302.

Cheers,
Geoff
