- From what I've read, Windows's built-in WebDAV support isn't great.
Everyone else's seems to be very good.  However, there are two more
important points here:

1. It only has to work perfectly when used within our ecosystem.  If it
falls back to read-only for Windows machines, that's fine.

2. There are good free WebDAV clients for Windows, like Novell NetDrive[1].
