First off, let me say I am in favor of this patch (and see it has been
committed).

I do want to raise one mild concern. Our error messages, especially
with DAV problems, tend to be useless. These messages you are
suppressing were not a help in solving the problem but they did
provide one benefit. You could typically Google these errors and find
hits in the mailing list that lead you to the solution. So my only
concern is that without these errors, we are just really going to make
it a little more difficult to solve problems.
