Is it possible to create Webdav resource, that would act as a symbolic link on unixes? I.e. client would understand that this resource is a link, and that it should in fact work with some other resource?

+1  A: 

A protocol for that is defined in RFC 4437; but there aren't a lot of clients and servers supporting that.

Thank you. Too bad it doesn't have wider support in clients, I could really use it now.

Actually I think the gnome client might. I haven't tested it, but it sends the Apply-To-Redirect-Ref header.

Evert - cool, I didn't know that.
