+1.

Speaking of RFC 3648, have implementations of that been done? How would a 
server signal to a client that just the order of child resources in the 
collection has changed, but not the actual resource bodies? It would be 
really handy if the server could send a "diff" of the ordering changes to 
not require the client to do a depth:1 PROPFIND (which the sync REPORT 
seeks to reduce use of).
