There is no button to push unfortunately, the offending piece of code in
your case is:

    # protected by 'WebDAV access'
    def listDAVObjects(self):
        # List sub-objects for PROPFIND requests.
        # (method is without docstring to disable publishing)
        #
        if _checkPermission(ManagePortal, self):
            return self.objectValues()
        else:
            return self.listFolderContents()

Hiding in CMFCore/PortalFolder.py. You'd have to change that or monkey
patch it to just do:

    # protected by 'WebDAV access'
    def listDAVObjects(self):
        return self.listFolderContents()

Hope that helps.
