Trying WebDAV share changes Permissions on Dataset

[esamett]

I was playing with WebDAV to try to get access from an iOS APP. (separate posting) Afterwards I deleted the share. I then noted that I couldn't delete files from my server. I checked Permissions on my Dataset and the User and Group had been changed to WebDAV. This was unexpected. I changed them back recursively and things seem to be back to normal.

Webdav shares only support the webdav user account, so ownership is set to that user when the webdav share is created.

When creating the WebDAV share/export thing it asks and tells you it's going to change ownership of all the files.
