git-remote-annex being used
This observation comes from an effort to implement a git-remote-helper that uses git-annex to enable fetch/push to and from any location that can be reached by any special remote. The fact that git-annex can be used to build things like this is just crazy cool! Thx much!

Weighing the two approaches (read-only `webdav` vs authenticated `httpalso`), it appears that only the read-only `webdav` is compatible with [git-remote-annex](https://git-annex.branchable.com/git-remote-annex/), because a user would need to declare *one* special remote (configuration) to use for cloning.
It would be great to have authenticated, read-only access to webdav shares. Thanks in advance for considering!

### Trust
We would need a way for users to indicate that they trust a particular compute introduction or the entity that provided it. Even if git-annex does not implement tooling for that, it would be good to settle on a concept that can be interpreted/implemented by such special remotes.
