When updating a document, is there any notion of submitting a

subset of the fields in a document should be updated would offer
some efficiency benefits. I guess I had in mind some scenario where
CouchDB would create the updated record by merging the existing
revision with the new info and saving the updated revision, but I'm
still new to CouchDB so I don't have a good sense of whether this
tramples on any important concepts.
Thanks for any thoughts.
This keeps coming up. I am seeing the words "seems", "would", "some",
"guess", "scenario", "brokeback mountain". I rather see numbers
supporting the cause. So far, other things prove to be a bottleneck.
I'd like to see a real app that would benefit from this. I'm not
saying there is none, I'd just like to see it :)
