at the moment, doing an http GET on a file in the vdrive works fine, but doing an http HEAD on the same file results in a 404. At worst we should do everything we'd normally do to download the file (or present the directory), and then just throw out the data. Ideally we'd do less work than that, for files we could emit a length and an ETag (really just the CHK:URI) without even downloading the file.

I'm interested in improving the web api for v0.6, so I'll take this ticket.

We're focussing on an imminent v0.7.0 (see the roadmap) which hopefully has [#197 #197 -- Small Distributed Mutable Files] and also a fix for [#199 #199 -- bad SHA-256]. So I'm bumping less urgent tickets to v0.7.1.

We need to choose a manageable subset of desired improvements for [ http://allmydata.org/trac/tahoe/milestone/0.7.1 v0.7.1], scheduled for two week hence, so I'm bumping this one into v0.7.2, scheduled for mid-December.

I think this might be finished now.. I remember thinking about it while doing the webapi refactoring a few weeks ago.

Yup, this was done as part of the big webapi refactoring. We don't have ETag, but I'll add that to a separate ticket.
