A. Bram Neijt commented on COUCHDB-674:
---------------------------------------

Wouldn't it be weird to get a "can't find the document" if you want to mark it 
as deleted?

I mean, there is a difference between actually deleting it and updating it to a 
deleted state. The first implies the object is there, the second implies the 
object is in a deletable state.

I'm not convinced they should return the same error messages.
