In CouchDB it does however you can write documents with any revision you
want - https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-2764, its a bit of an edge
case so I havent pushed it, but still possible
> Etag can be made to not reflect content

> Is a curl example, basically if you new_edits: false a document you can use
> whatever data you want and the revision is not determined by its content,
> which makes can cause bugs if stuff depends on the etag being correct.
> We are hit this a lot in the pouchdb test suite since we delete databases and
> replicate into them often
