provides() does not supports returning a status code or headers
---------------------------------------------------------------

                 Key: COUCHDB-1330
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-1330
             Project: CouchDB
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: JavaScript View Server
    Affects Versions: 1.1.1
         Environment: Iris Couch
            Reporter: Jason Smith
            Priority: Minor


An Iris Couch user lost the ability to redirect from a provides() callback in a 
show function: 
http://getsatisfaction.com/iriscouch/topics/_provides_method_not_returning_code_and_headers

This show function no longer works:

function (doc, req) {
    provides('html', function () {
        return {
            headers: { Location: 'http://www.iriscouch.com' },
            code: 302,
            body: 'Redirecting to IrisCouch website...'
        };
    });   
}

This looks like a regression from 1.1.0; although there are no unit tests so 
perhaps strictly speaking it was unsupported functionality. Git bisect places 
the error at the patch to COUCHDB-1272.
