Jan Lehnardt updated COUCHDB-185:
---------------------------------

    Fix Version/s: 0.9
         Priority: Blocker  (was: Trivial)

API discussion, set blocking for 0.9.

This could be a "400 Bad Request":

    10.4.1 400 Bad Request

    The request could not be understood by the server due to malformed syntax. 
The client SHOULD NOT repeat the request without modifications.

-- RFC 2616.

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

> 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.
