Re-read it. It is talking about using two different requests. The normal
GET to one URL would run the Script. The DAV GET to the second URL would
allow you to retrieve the script. This is being written in the context of
using DAV to manage the site content.

Even if it did work, I am not sure I would agree we are good to go in the
sense that there isn't a single bug tracking system in the world that
actually supports this. Where as, at least if you were doing an HTTP
