See,

this is exactly why we are so reluctant to add new things. Frequently, they
turn out to be not as simple as suggested.

So I'd propose either to make the minimal change I suggested (allowing
multiple scopes (optional), and defining a condition code for servers that
don't support that), or not to put it into DAV:basicsearch.
