>>Because then existing applications wouldn't know when they were dealing
with a local or remote file store, despite the fact that local and remote
file access are two very different beasts.
We've had filesharing for quite some time and the world hasn't fallen apart
yet.
Probably the reason it isn't integrated into the OS has more to do with QA
and the fact that the UI for the filesystem (Explorer) doesn't support all
the functionality of WebDAV.
