>In gvfs there is always a second way to access published folders (it is
the same for samba shares).

Yes, there is, but it's also optional and extra. We mount GVFS shares
through FUSE when possible, which allows legacy and/or POSIX-only
applications to access files on our virtual file system.

>On the client, the shares are published with the syntax "dav://....".
If you simply try to copy one of the shared folders to the client (which
is nothing but a normal download), it does not work, and you get the
error message "not found". Copying (downloading) single files in the
same way works fine.

This is entirely another bug, likely 267642 or 227852.

>Since "gnome-user-share" is meant to be a tool for everyone, the
default way must work without any sofisticated workarounds!

The problem is that "gnome-user-share" does not understand GIO, and
thusly cannot use GVFS. You can use it with the FUSE mounted daemon, as
mentioned above, but it's generally bad behavior to depend on anything
in that folder since it very well may not exist on all configurations.
But as I said, I also think it's nonsense to share a file that's already
been shared.
