I see, thanks for the hints.

I know, I know :-)

But the main reason for asking is the way our users employ the dav:// 
and davs:// schemes in local interaction with a browser, as in this [1].

So probably something else is needed in local use only.

The internal scheme vnd.sun.star.webdav: may be used, though misses the 
https:// counterpart (vnd.sun.star.webdavs: ?).

Or something entirely new: vnd.tdf.org.dav: / vnd.tdf.org.davs: ? :-)

In order to use pure WebDAV and not the file system mapped one.

So in the the users will have a choice (in Linux, don't know in other 
platforms):

- WebDAV file system mapped: dav:// davs://
- pure WebDAV: a choice among the others I suggested above.
