Subject: Re: DAV:revision-resourcetype
Only if you allow transmutation of types, e.g. version 1 of this resource
was a "quote" and version 2 is a "purchase order", or some such. In
general, I think allowing transmutation is a bad idea, so we shouldn't have
a revision-resourcetype different than resourcetype, ever.
