Would it be possible to add WebDAV support to the wishlist for a future
release?

It's already on the suggestion list. It would have higher priority if
somebody had a specific use for it, and included sample syntax! :-)

I'll try and put something together for you. I'm starting to use WebDAV
internally for publishing certain types of content, more or less as a
replacement for FTP when client software either doesn't support FTP or
there is a possibility of non-FTP-friendly firewalls in action.

testing WebDAV servers when I'm having issues getting other software to
work, although depending on how well this works across the board I might
look into replacing all of my scripted FTP with WebDAV.

As far as sample syntaxes and whatnot, I'll do a bit of digging and see
what I can find, I really don't know a ton about WebDAV yet, beyond that
I've got several apps that publish via WebDAV and that it simplifies a
few things that FTP makes difficult.
