RFC 2518 doesn't explicitly specify how to handle the case where a COPY with
Depth infinity has a destination that is within the source hierarchy. For
example, a COPY of Depth infinity of /A/ into /A/B/. One resolution is to state
that the copy must behave as if the resources are first copied to a temporary
location, then moved from the temporary location into the destination.

Raised during the Sept. 29, 1999 Advanced Collections teleconference.
