       The protocol doc should note that MERGE may fail due to 'the linear 
       constraint would be violated by the required creation of a working 
       resource'.
    
    Good point.  Perhaps a good way to phrase this is that "the working
    resources created by a MERGE request MUST NOT violate any of the
    preconditions of a CHECKOUT operation".
