I'm not sure I got everything here...

My reading of the code (webdav.NullResource line 122) says that:
- PUT is called on an unwrapped object.
- the the object is _setObject'ed in its parent

So you'll have to do your stuff in manage_afterAdd I fear...
Don't forget to call the inheritedAttribute'ed one :-)
