UC7 - Random write access in binaries

Think: a video file exposed onto the desktop via WebDAV. Desktop tools would do 
random writes in that file. How can we cover this use case without 
up/downloading the large file. (essentially: random write access in binaries)

I don't think we can construct a use case here, as there is no standard HTTP (or WebDAV) way to *write* byte ranges.

The WebDAV drivers I'm aware of handle this by caching the complete file locally, applying the change, and re-uploading the whole file.

Best regards, Julian
