I contributed a change to CouchRest which lets you do
Foo.on(database).whatever
which directs your request to a database dynamically.
I haven't tested this in a while - I found CouchRest too complex internally
so I ended up knocking together my own API (couchtiny). I published it on
github.com/candlerb, although it's subject to change at my own whim :-)

Yes. For me it's a feature, rather than a bug, that couchdb databases are
completely isolated from each other. Maybe you should consider lumping
everything into one database.
