I'm a total novice, but we just are completing a similar project. So, this may help if more knowledgeable folks don't chime in.
- WCK is just a thin wrapper around slide, so you won't get rid of the slide dependency. From what I can tell, unless you really know the guts of both the WEBDAV spec, and the particular idiosyncrasies of windows web folders, you really need to lean on all the core slide stuff anyway, so this is good, not bad. - WCK also includes a custom JAAS authentication and authorization implementation which lets you use your own authentication store. We used this to perform authentication against our back-end system. Worked quickly as advertised. - We did not find a way yet to get rid of the default slide storage items you mention (roles/ etc.) but they are not really being used in any significant way in our app as noted just above. We did gain some experience with making this all work well with windows webfolders, but I suspect our problems in most cases were unique to our (somewhat abnormal) use case. Still, if you're having trouble feel free to ask (though you'll need to CC: me directly since I'm not on the users list). For configuration as I recall, we did not change much besides changing the implementation of the BasicWebdavStore, and changing the uri for the file store in Domain.xml, and making the appropriate config for our implementation in jaas.config.
