Description

The AbstractWebdavServlet takes care of handling
the webdav requests. In case of DELETE, it just goes ahead and deletes the
resource. See [1]. A mechanism is needed to hook in any code here to get
invoked whenever a DELETE request is made, similar to CopyMoveHandler which get invoked in case of COPY/MOVE requests.
