Method for restarting filtered replication
------------------------------------------

                 Key: COUCHDB-892
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-892
             Project: CouchDB
          Issue Type: New Feature
          Components: Replication
            Reporter: Marco Monteiro
            Priority: Minor


I'm using filtered replication to maitain a database that has a subset of the 
documents of some other database.
The problem I have is when I change the filter. If the filter allows for more 
documents to be replicated, those that
were created before the last replication are not replicated. So, I have to 
remove the database and recreate it.

I see two solutions that can be implemented to help in this situation. The 
first one is for the filtered replication
to restart whenever the filter changes (maybe also adding an argument to 
replicate to tell that" we want this to happen).

Another solution is to add an argument to replicate ("start_seq", as sugested 
by fdmanana on IRC) that would be the 
source database ""local_seq that we want the replication to start from. This an 
be set to 1 to restart from first change.
