It seems to be inconsistent that a POST to _temp_view only works if
Content-Type: application/json is provided, whereas in every other part of
the API I've exercised so far it's not needed (example below).
I see there is explicit code enforcing this, in
couch_httpd_view:handle_temp_view_req/2
Could someone explain what the reason is for this?
Thanks,
Brian.
