I think it should be implementation dependent. This issue also applies to DAV:displayname. Ideally a server should support changing these values, but for some implementations it just doesn't make sense or is too difficult to implement.

The spec (13.5) does not say whether the DAV:getcontenttype property is readonly or not. In mod_dav it is, in PyDAV it is not. I claim it should not be read-only, as the client (who stored the resource via PUT) has better knowledge of the server (which can, at best, be relying on resource name heuristics to guess the content type).
