Questions on test: 39 unlock

Hey guys,

sorry for spamming the list so much over the last hour :)

I have a question regarding lock test 39.

Test 38 (unmapped_lock) creates a lock on /litmus/unmapped_url (I  
return 201 Created)
After that, it invokes a delete on /litmus/unmapped_url (to which I  
return 204 No Content)

Then test 39 starts, and tries to unlock the url that was just  
deleted, to which I return : 412 Precondition failed

Am I supposed to retain locks of deleted urls? The RFC doesn't mention  
this (or: I can't find it) and Lisa Dusseault's book mentions in  
section 8.7.3:

"When a resource that is directly locked is deleted, its lock  
disappears", however.. I believe this book is based off RFC2518, and  
not RFC4918.
