I have concerns about broken clients, too. See
http://greenbytes.de/tech/webdav/webfolder-client-list.html#issue-displayname-2.
This bug affects most of the recent MSDAIPP.DLL versions. It doesn't
seem to cause problems with GETs or PROPFINDs, but any manipulation of
the file causes it to break.

That being said, I'm for the change. I agree it makes things clearer
and Microsoft should fix the bug eventually ;).

I expect some trouble with broken clients. If there is more than one 
resource with the same displayname, e.g. index.html, probably only
one document is shown. My current MS Explorer (msdaipp.dll
8.103.5219.0)
ignores the displayname completely. Also there might be
inconsistencies,
if a resource moves. Nevertheless I like the idea.

+1 for keeping it.
