I can confirm that the same bug (or something very similar) still exists in saucy. Consider the following:

cobrien@tasman:~$ mount /media/ipad
cobrien@tasman:~$ cp ~/Documents/AVIA\ 101/Handbook/hb_su8.pdf /media/ipad/My\ Documents/Aviation/AVIA\ 101/Handbook/
cobrien@tasman:~$ umount /media/ipad
/sbin/umount.davfs: waiting while mount.davfs (pid 6324) synchronizes the cache .. OK
cobrien@tasman:~$ mount /media/ipad
cobrien@tasman:~$ ls /media/ipad/My\ Documents/Aviation/AVIA\ 101/Handbook/
hb_intro.pdf hb_su1.pdf hb_su2.pdf hb_su3.pdf hb_su4.pdf hb_su5.pdf hb_su7.pdf hb_su8.pdf

Browsing the same webdav share via Nautilus shows that hb_su8.pdf does not exist on the iPad. Confirmed via the GoodReader app on the iPad itself. Files copies via Nautilus to the same webdav share are successful.

Note that it was necessary to set "use_locks 0" in ~/.davfs2/davfs2.conf otherwise any attempt to create a new file on the webdav share failed.
