I already modified the build scripts so that it's included in future

First of all, the command line client is very rough and needs a lot of work.
It's still a useful debug tool, though.
TC will return 200 in all the cases you described above, which is not
correct (but it's a Tomcat problem). You should try to access some Webdav
enabled URL, like /slide/ (don't forget to modify the permissions to allow
for write operations).
With TC 4.0, /webdav/ is also DAV enabled (and is also read only by
default).
