If I were using SVN & WebDAV, I would want them to use the direct URL and not try to sleight of hand because there could be so many different clients that react in different and unpredictable ways and for the most part, once the client has been given the URL, the configuration is done. Also, if the redirect is a self-signed certificate, various clients may not be expecting them, let alone never being able to figure out how to deal with them.
