Hi Alex, canDeleteTreeSpecified is a class member generated by the .NET XML serialization framework. It indicates if the tag exists in the XML document or not. It has nothing to do with the CMIS specification. It shouldn't show up IN the XML, thought. Only Microsoft can answer why it is there. OpenCMIS ignores it.
The CMIS Workbench does work with SharePoint. There are a few issues that are caused by Microsofts CMIS implementation. The CMIS Workbench works best with the AtomPub binding. If you can, turn off NTLM and turn on basic authentication on the SharePoint end.
