Description
Hi!
Is it possible to use the library for opening files (r/w) by clients directly from webdav server without mounting it as remote file system?
My task is to provide an user of a web-application a link to a file on webdav server for editing using native application (i.e. LibreOffice Writer). This client supports webdav protocol, however it fails to open files from dav-server (on actix_web).

Research direction
No files or tests are named. Start by reproducing the LibreOffice client failure against the actix_web DAV server and identify the WebDAV behavior required for direct file access; done means clients can open files for reading and writing without mounting the server.
