Great ! I wrote an essay on WebDAV a year ago, noting that there was
no perl API.. I considered writing a perl module for it, but, alas,
m'toolazy :)
How complete is the module ? Does it implement all the features in the
RFC ? What about other features (the ones specified in drafts - yeah,
I know, there are millions of them) ?

I see no problems with this.. like you said, it extends HTTP, thus it
would seem to be the logical place to put it into.
