FW: GET on a referential member

Caught by the spam filter (not sure why, I'm looking into it).

Subject: [Spam?] GET on a referential member
In the WebDAV Collection Protocol Draft just posted, at the end of
section 3.5, I read:
 A GET on a referential member of a collection returns its own
 content, which is the URI of its target resource, not the
 content of its target resource.
I'm not sure this is the optimal behavior, because it a non-DAV-aware
client, such as a browser, won't know what to do with the URI as a
content item, which would limit the usefulness of referential members.
Can we perhaps put it into the Location: header instead?
