Yes.
Speaking about permissions, WebDAV ACL support in the client is coming soon, to
make it easier to manipulate ACLs.

Same as the others.
For example, if you say that /foo can't read /col1, and it's inheritable,
then /foo can't read /col1/file1 either.
The algorithm will go up in the tree when checking permissions, and will stop
as soon as the permission is either granted or denied. If it gets to the root
node and the permission isn't granted, then it's denied.
