group=true is silently dropped in non-reduce views
--------------------------------------------------

                 Key: COUCHDB-185
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-185
             Project: CouchDB
          Issue Type: Improvement
    Affects Versions: 0.9
            Reporter: Maximillian Dornseif
            Priority: Trivial


If you query a view without a reduce() function and pass group=true the group 
parameter is ignored. This does certainly not follow the principle of least 
astonishment.

One might argue, that requesting grouping on something without reduce is 
generally an error and thus should result in an HTTP error, but this might 
break to much existing code.

But at least the fact, that the parameter was ignored should be logged.
