Well Oracle also thinks that it's cool to build your entire applicationin the database and that empty strings are the same as null, so I'd rather not emulate Oracle just because :-)Oracle supports webdav.
Well, there is nothing wrong in storing data in a database, but adding webdav support to sapdb to do that is a little backwards.They extended the mod_dav with deltaV. Why not manage properties and versions in a RDBMS? Other vendors use XML-databases for that.
A much better solution would be to extend the standard mod_dav so it works with sapdb, that way sap doesn't have to carry around the webdav inplementation in their own and people who actually use webdav will have the option to store data in sapdb.
No one is going to want to change away from Apache just to get a sub-par webdav implementation (well it's not going to have as many users as mod_dav so it's not going to get the same level of debugging) with exelent data-storage.
