As you noted, in RFC 4791 no Depth header means Depth:0, so CalDAVTester's 
behavior is wrong. Please file a bug on calendarserver.org for CalDAVTester 
and I will get that fixed. In fact I will change the current tests to use 
Depth:1 and then add a test that explicitly uses Depth:0 on a calendar 
collection and test that nothing comes back.
