I do not think this will work. DAV needs a DAV provider. Typically, in
your example, this would be the file system provider (mod_dav_fs), which
is going to want to look to the file system to respond to PROPFIND and
other DAV requests it will receive. I do not think there would be any way
to get PHP to step in without writing a special DAV provider.
