After upgrading openSUSE 12.3 to GNOME 3.8 opening a file from Nautilus [GVFS] from a WebDAV volume occasionally drops the initial part of the path; so "/dav/Projects..." becomes "/Projects..." which, of course, fails. The response from the server is valid, and the files can be browsed in Nautilus; they can also be dragged back and forth between local and remote. Opening the *THE FIRST* file in gedit works. After than gedit / GVFS makes a bad OPTIONS call, that responds with a 404, and stops the ability to open files. Killing the gvfs dav worker allows me to open ONE MORE FILE. I've attached the client server conversations. The first two are successful PROPFIND requests and the last is the incorrect 404 OPTIONS request. In both cases the server was attached to as http://127.0.0.1:8080/dav. The "dav" part gets dropped in all but the first OPTIONS request.
