Funny, since I implemented it last month. :-)
It's pretty important to me that we end up with a "finished"
autoversioning feature as a side-effect of all this locking stuff.
That means allowing locks on nonexistent paths, and allowing a client
to create an expiring lock. If we don't have those things, some very
popular DAV clients won't interoperate.
