Marcus, how is this different from what Jonathan described in
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, that is:
In the absence of any authority to fabricate new capabilities, the
following chain of mappings is now in effect after the exchange:
RevCopy RevCopy
A ----------> CapServer -----------> B
It feels like the CapServer thing is anyway quite complex compared to
having a primitive COPY operation.
Thanks,
Ludovic.
