RE: SEARCH for displayname

Hi,

I didn't want to introduce properties to the URI. If this should be allowed
or makes sense is a different discussion. What I want to say is: the last
path segment logically belongs to the URI and is NOT a property of the
resource. 

Regards,
Martin

Well, it's a little more complicated than that.  I agree most existing
properties refer to the resource. However the spec actually says properties
describe "the state of" the resource.  That state could include its URL
mappings or primary mapping or current mapping.
