I'd vest yourself into SWORD before LNI. the webdav support, while technically feasable in LNI, suffers horrible performance issues. If you want to transfer lots of scanned image files on a regular basis, are considering using a mounted filesystem of some sort and are not wanting to be concerned with making a mets package for each item, then I postulate that you'd be better off using nfs mounts and a central san/nas filesystem combined with ItemImporter.
