I should have re-read that after myself, the wording is bad. What I meant is that, after I enabled sharing, and the connection is established, webdavd blocks on read. This unblocks only after the drive is mounted, meaning I have to mount in parallel to reading. If I call it before, it just fails (because as you said, connection must be up before that) and I can't call it after that, because it blocks forever. As I said, there might be a better fix for this, but I couldn't find any that would work properly.
