[Building Sakai] webdav rename

I thought that the display name never changed as a result of webdav operations.

But if the behaviour changed from 2-5-x to 2-6-x, I'd say it was inadvertent rather than by design.

I know this issue has been around the block many times without resolution (relationship of filename to display name). What I think is a logical solution is to update the displayname when filename changes, IF the displayname and filename were the same. i.e. If you explicitly change the display name, a filename rename shouldn't change it.

Regards

its appears that in 2.5 doing a rename in webdav caused both the  
displayName and file name to update, in 2.6 the displayName does not  
change.  Does anyone know if this was an intended change or possibly a  
bug ?
