No, but this should be rather straightforward. Alternatively, most  
modern OSs can mount WebDAV servers directly as remote volumes (e.g.  
davfs, etc).

FWIW, Nanoki implements the server side of WebDAV:

http://dev.alt.textdrive.com/browser/HTTP/WikiDAV.txt
http://dev.alt.textdrive.com/browser/HTTP/WikiDAV.lua

You can see it in action by connection to Nanoki's online demo through  
any type of WebDAV client, e.g. your favorite OS:
