Here it's how it's supposed to work [1].

Proved to be very difficult to open a http/https link from a browser and 
have it sent to LO and not the browser itself, at least using the scarce 
example I had.

Probably there is another way I don't know ATM.

that would be a good idea, especially in Windows where dav:// doesn't 
work at all in master (checked with a daily build), and http/https links 
inside a browser have difficulty same as above.

Finally, ATM on Linux (Ubuntu 14.04) the gio service complained the 
share was not WebDAV while it actually was, see the warnings on the 
first message of this thread, so I wasn't able to see it at work.
