Only standard protocols and not extensions?

What's really interesting is that the Microsoft extensions to and deviations from the published standards aren't listed. For example, the HTTP digest authentication deviations aren't listed. I'd like to know when/why/how the Windows domain name gets stuffed into the user name for example.

Then there are protocols that aren't listed. What does that mean? Is Microsoft going to drop Web DAV support?
