I guess part of the problem is to distinguish between protocols that 
*use* HTTP the way it was designed to be used (auch as WebDAV or 
AtomPub) from protocols that just use HTTP as a transport layer (SOAP & 
friends).

Both WebDAV and AtomPub both use HTTP to edit/author HTTP resources. 
IMHO there's no point in running these operations on a different port 
from the one the resulting resources can be retrieved from.
