man mount.davfs provides an entry in fstab for -t davfs. Does simply adding this into fstab complete the task, or is a reboot needed? (or some service restarted).

IIRC, as long as you have the proper fs module loaded, all you need to do is mount the file system.

Maybe goes without saying, but 'mount -a' would be recommended as that reads from fstab to perform the mount. We don't want any surprises on our next boot do we?

fstab is the list of mounts that will be done at boot, but you can manually invoke mount at any time with the same arguments supplied from a line in fstab.
As the others have stated, invoking mount with just the device name or the mount point is a good way to test your fstab entry, as mount will look in fstab if you don't supply all the arguments.
