Actually, I was considering that. In the WebDAV example, the server is
just going to give the client the correct version. My point was that
since there is nothing in the proposed spec that would allow you to
explicitly or implicitly lock anything other than the latest revision,
there should not be any problem supporting the WebDAV concepts you have
outlined.
