Antony, those sounds like interesting ideas, and I hope you can get
it working. But a one-way replicable db with full-consistency
guarantees is not what CouchDB was ever intended to be (to be
clear, this is a statement of fact). I don't disapprove of it, but
it doesn't fit with CouchDB's design. I'm also not convinced of the
utility of it in the general case, the one-way replication
limitation to me doesn't solve interesting problems, but that's
just my opinion.

And if my assumption about the ordering of replication records is
correct, I'd like to see a commit # in the rev because that enables
replication that would preserve an ACID bulk_docs contract in
exclusive replication scenarios.
The question is wether you are willing to drive the coding effort and
community communication to make that happen. Like Damien, I'm not
trying to discourage you, on the contrary, I'd love to see the community
driving features.
Cheers
