This is a problem for all DAV servers that deal with dynamic content :( The DAV working group has been surprisingly resistant to widening their scope to cover dynamic content - surprising to me, at least, given the growing ubiquity of .asp, php, dtml, etc.
Apparently MS decided to stop beating their head against this and came up with their own magic header that lets their (win2K/ exchange) DAV server know that you want the _unprocessed_ content. I suspect that in lieu of an "official" solution, this will catch on. Once there are clients that know about this, I expect we will support it in Zope as well.
Actually, the spec does encompass this, and Zope already supports it :^) PROPFIND on, eg, index_html will include: ... <d:propstat xmlns:n="DAV:"> ... <n:source> <n:link> <n:src>/index_html</n:src> <n:dst>/index_html/document_src</n:dst> </n:link> </n:source> ...
