           Summary: PUT_AND_INTERMEDIATE_COLLECTIONS
           Product: WebDAV-RFC2518-bis
           Version: -07
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: other
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: 08.  HTTP Methods for Distributed Authoring
        AssignedTo: [email-masked]
        ReportedBy: [email-masked]
         QAContact: [email-masked]

HTTP/1.1 allows PUT to create intermediate collections during PUT operation.
WebDAV explicitly forbids this. This may cause problems with non-DAV-aware
HTTP/1.1 authoring clients which depend on this behavior, even though the
behavior is not guaranteed by HTTP/1.1 PUT.
