Bug Description
When viewing a webDAV mounted share in nautilus it will proceed to download all the files in order to generate thumbnails, including large files. This results in GB's of data being downloaded and freezes nautilus. This even happens if under Preferences > Preview a tick is placed at Local Files only and only files smaller than (<10MB).
From this I conclude that nautilus sees a remote webDAV share as local (or just doesn't check) and that it doesn't check file size (or only checks file size if it already has downloaded/cached the entire file).
This is in Nautilus 3.10.1 on Ubuntu 14.04 LTS

Do you still see that behaviour on newer versions?
