WebDAV has additional advantage that is supported in many desktop apps like MS Office and LibreOffice. It essentially enables you to "save to the web" directly.
For instance you can open an attachment in Aida/Scribo, edit it and save directly back to that attachment. No need to save localy, delete old attachment and attach back new one.
