A request for the getetag property of every item in the collection.

Since collections don't have getetag properties this makes sense (they
have ctags, if you are luckly).

Yep, there we go.

Yuck, that sucks.  Those collections should be able to provide ctags.

... yea, we already did this.

Cool, now it is looking somewhere that sounds interesting.  But
apparently this URL just contains additional collections?

Looking for etags on collections again, it won't find any.

And it didn't.

.... Are you sure you actually have it configured to look at a
collection of contacts?  In Nautilus in what collection [URL] do you
actually see VCF/vCard objects?
