The request never even got there, because it was never sent.

What I notice after a while was that my object had det size 0?
Now WebDrive is smart and doesn't get resources what are empty.
The problem is that I hadn't created a get_size method in my class,
and since it wasn't based on File or DTMLMethod (which declare get_size)
it didn't have any size.

So besides implementing document_src one needs to implement get_size.


The following attributes (callables or non-callables)
isn't bad to have either:

content_type, default_content_type, isAnObjectManager, id


Is it possible to override dav__creationdate(self) in any way, without
tusching PropertySheets.py, so it accutally returns the creation_date?

I think it should default to absattr(self.CreationDate).
