See, its fucked up.

No, your comment proves nothing.

Anyway, there's a lot of literature on this subject, so you and I arguing the point from scratch isn't efficient. Let's agree to disagree.

The scheme I was suggesting was keeping around a small set of tests to
check browser compliance with JS funcitonality that CouchDB requires.
Things like making sure your XHR can do DELETE's (which is a bug in
Opera we've run into).

My point is that these kinds of test are generally useful, outside of Couch, as a separate project. Carefactor < epsilon :)
