<< As I recall, the DAV Explorer client <http://www.ics.uci.edu/~webdav/> uses lock discovery. I believe it's smart enough to do lock discovery if a resource is locked, and DAV Explorer doesn't have the lock token. It then tries the lock token on the off chance the requesting principal actually owns the lock. >> The spec deprecates that kind of client behavior for the reason that two programs that don't know about each other might be logged on as the same person, right?
