I personaly think the request which is almost only a user interaction should not be a part of the model. The basic event subscribers will act at the (MVC) model level independent of what user will interact and independent from the different user interfaces e.g. web browser web dav etc. But I see your point. I think what is missing is some kind of view events. Because the API which web dav uses is implemented as views, right? I also think this is probably special for FTP and Web Dav but not required in web browser views.
