couchup uses URLs of the form http://127.0.0.1:5984/ and :5986 (or
whatever ports are passed in on the CLI), so this won't be an issue.

I think we left in the loophole for the couchup utility that helps folks to go
from 1.x to 2.x, no need for that in 3.x.

In 2.x local replication endpoints only seem to work like in 1.x but they
do something quite confusing: instead of replicating a clustered database
they replicate a node local database on the node where the replication job
happens to run. The node were replication runs is essentially random as far
as users are concerned. So "local" replications in 2.x almost never do what
users expect.
Over the years this confusion led to numerous question and issues raised in
the IRC channel. So the proposal is to remove support for "local"
replications from versions 3.x and up, and only support "remote"
replication endpoints. That will reduce the support and issue load as well
as replicator code size.
What does everyone think?
