#7827: Upload strategy when editing remote file should be configurable

        Type:  enhancement             |     Status:  new
    Priority:  normal                  |  Milestone:
   Component:  webdav                  |    Version:  4.4.3
    Severity:  normal                  |   Keywords:  webdav
Architecture:  Intel                   |   Platform:  Mac OS X 10.9
---------------------------------------+---------------------------
 When remote file that has been fetched for editing is uploaded back to a
 WebDAV server, Cyberduck does the file name shuffle (PUT / MOVE) (for
 safety? HTTP exchange example is below). Perhaps, this behaviour should be
 configurable; i.e. a user should be able to choose in prefs whether the
 shuffle is performed or the file is uploaded (PUT) directly.

 The reason for this suggestion is that WebDAV server may not be be able to
 retain versioning information for the target file when such a shuffle is
 performed.

 In my case, it is the WebDAV interface of the Box.com service. When edited
 file is put back on box.com server, file versioning information is lost.
