  Problem when copying folders with Nautilus using WebDAV

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: nautilus

  I am writing a WebDAV server ('wsgidav') and noticed that I cannot
  copy folders with Nautilus.

  1. connect to the WebDAV share, open it in Nautilus
  2. drag a folder to the Ubuntu Desktop
  3. A HTML file is created, where the copied folder should be

  Happens on Ubuntu 8.04 and 9

  In the WebDAV log I can see, that Nautilus sends a GET request for the collection. My server generates an HTML response in this case, so that the share can be viewed with a browser. 
  I am pretty sure, that this is OK, according to the spec:
  http://www.webdav.org/specs/rfc4918.html#rfc.section.9.4

  I think, Nautilus should rather send recursive GETs for the single
  files (or send a COPY or MOVE request, if the target is inside the
  same WebDAV share)
