You just removed the stable way to retrieve these paths..

The reporting phase of an update was designed (probably in 2000-2001) to exactly handle this: In the report phase the working copy tells the repository/server exactly how a switched working copy looks like and what revisions each node has.

The idea of HTTPv2 was to deprecate the dav props by using this knowledge and how the urls are constructed.
My patch allowed that by providing the missing pieces. Your patch makes dav props required again. (So maybe it reverted the original idea of HTTPv2?)

Can you explain why reverting this was necessary?
