I was wondering about that. I think the issue is that PROPFIND is only  
defined by the WebDAV RFC. Just having an Allow: PROPFIND doesn't  
necessarily imply that its the PROPFIND method with the payload as  
specified in WebDAV?

Hm, maybe we really need WebDAV level -1, which just specifies  
PROPFIND? :-)
I think it really doesn't matter for interoperability in the real  
world though.
