Section 8.10.1 states that a LOCK request "SHOULD" have a request body. However, it does not state what the server should use as a default if the client does not supply a body. What should a server do? Create a lock of its own choosing? The text does state "unless this is a refresh request", but the parsing of the sentence is not entirely clear. I believe the intent is probably that it MUST have a body for asserting a lock, and that it MUST NOT have a body for refreshing a lock. On a slightly different topic: why is a refresh done using locktokens gathered from the If: header, rather than the more obvious Lock-Token: header?
