The 'design problem' I have with how you proposed to do it, is that I don't 
think the structure of your webservice (or WebDAV service in this case) 
should change depending on who is logged in.

A good way to do this, is to indeed use per-user folders, so you get a 
structure like:

dav.example.org/user1/
dav.example.org/user2/

And when user1 tries to access user2's files, they should just a 403 error.

The easiest way to do this, is to use the ACL system. But you are still 
definitely required to figure out the 'virtual filesystem' thing.
