Just out of interest: Is it stated somewhere in the spec that DAV: 
namespace'd properties are considered private?
(again, of course this makes sense, but was not aware of this strict 
limitation)

Because there doesn't seem to be an explicit explanation what a 
"property" wrt to the spec is. I had several discussions with 
developers which would suggest that "D:href" as used outside the <prop> 
element is also a "property" and I didn't find a proof or exact 
specification in the standard to answer that.
While it is somewhat obvious for me, it doesn't seem to be so for 
others.
