Oh please oh please oh please oh please! :)
Seriously though, I'm "just" an end-user/sysadmin using this stuff and
not a developer myself, but I'm been searching and looking and hoping
for a good filesystem-based dav_acl server implementation.
So, I'll put my $.02 in that this is a capability that I have long, long
desired from Apache or something like it. So, please don't blow this
off for a perceived lack of interest from end-users. :)
