Having had a good look through the spec I don't think that it does allow the 
lock token to be obsfucated. I am basing this opinion on the following quotes:
- 6.3 quoteAnyone can find out anyone else's lock token by performing lock 
discovery./quote
- 17.3 Security through Obscurity
quote
   WebDAV provides, through the PROPFIND method, a mechanism for listing
   the member resources of a collection.  This greatly diminishes the
   effectiveness of security or privacy techniques that rely only on the
   difficulty of discovering the names of network resources.  Users of
   WebDAV servers are encouraged to use access control techniques to
   prevent unwanted access to resources, rather than depending on the
   relative obscurity of their resource names.
/quote

I have just committed a patch to CVS that removes the lock obsfucation 
functionality. This will be included in the next release.
It has also been ported to TC4.

I think the problem is that the servlet obsfucates lock tokens, which it has
every right to do (this is from memory).
Anyway, the servlet supports WebDAV level 1, which doesn't include locking
(which is very complex to implement completely, so is only partially implemented).
I'll let Mark resolve this report.

That's incorrect. It has the right to *hide* lock tokens, but not to 
return incorrect ones.

Can anybody explain why the servlet actually *intends* to hide the lock 
token? Each and every WebDAV server I've seen (and I've seen a lot) 
reveals them upon PROPFFIND/lockdiscovery.

A couple of suggestions based on the recent comment.  

- If only Level 1 is supported, and locking is not supported fully, then 
perhaps a configuration option would be warranted that:
  - Keeps the servlet from reporting that it supports: level 2 and lock 
methods.
  - Makes lock operations a no-op for clients that still try to lock no matter 
what.
