The URL with the username specified is the outcome of a standard Gnome dialog: the "Connect to Server" dialog for WebDAV has an optional username textfield, and its value is canned into the final URL. If the username is part of the URL, then you'll get a password dialog without the username textfield and finally a "HTTP Error: Moved Permanently" error.
