There is no support for "nested" documents.
A document can have metadata associated to it, which could refer to other
documents (the attachements).

Yes, but it's not accessible using the WebDAV layer.

Still using the manager servlet (bad), and very soon using WebDAV ACL, which is
now supported on the server side but not on the client side. Slide 1.0.10
(which could probably be released as a beta) will include it.

No. It has a very simple (and quite limited) JTA implementation integrated. The
plan is to eventually make that component pluggable (if possible).
