I think in the WebDAV world > XML makes sense as we already have the multistatus response. Its not really WebDAV specific in any way, it could be used for arbitrary HTTP based protocols. The problem with XML is that HTTP content is quite often binary :-) Makes sense for properties (eg inside a batch), but IMHO not for HTTP resource contents. BATCH would be a simple concat of the requests/responses as if they where issued separately. (but giving the server the chance to group them for more efficient processing).
