Forgive me for throwing out a loose-cannon idea, but would it be
easiest to provide an API where the user sends a Javascript function
to CouchDB via the PATCH method? The function could look something
like:

function(doc) {
  doc.my_field = "new value";
  doc.existing_array[3] = "another new value";
  doc.new_array = ["a", "b", 3];
  return doc;
}
