It seems like we are Doing Something Wrong here, by asking for a
property from the head when we aren't doing anything related to the
head.

I would say, for now, that when we aren't grabbing the baseline
revision, we should start at the root and go from there. I don't have a
good enough handle on how we're using DAV to know what level of
inefficiency this introduces, but I expect it's not important. If it
does turn out to be important, we could try the full path as an
optimization and then fall back to starting at / if that fails.

(Though, I'm concerned about that. /foo/bar in the head could refer to
a totally different directory than /foo/bar in some earlier rev. Will
everything still work if this is the case?)
