Hi,
I have checked how the others (Membase, CouchBase) are doing it and suggest the
following disk layout:
Data Dir / Application Support Folder
=====================================
~/Library/Application Support/CouchDB/etc
couchdb-server.ini
~/Library/Application Support/CouchDB/var/run/couchdb
couch.uri
~/Library/Application Support/CouchDB/var/lib/couchdb
views & dbs
Logs
====
~/Library/Logs
couchdb-server.log
Is this ok?

P.S. I have also found the incompatibility between OS X versions 10.6.8 -
10.7.2 and the later ones. I guess we can serve
all with one binary
