Filipe Manana updated COUCHDB-558:
----------------------------------

    Attachment: jira-couchdb-558-for-trunk.patch

Hello,

I would like to have some feedback about this patch. I am learning Erlang, as 
well as CouchDB's implementation, so this is a good exercise for me and, 
hopefully, a good contribution to CouchDB.

JavaScript test case is included.

A suggestion:

Don't you agree it would be also interesting to have a config option for 
CouchDB to include MD5 digests for GET replies? This way the client side could 
validate the integrity of the messages received from CouchDB.

best regards,
Filipe Manana
