Eric,
Implementation isn't a problem, but I would fear that replication
could screw views up. As in, your views would depend on the order of
document modification which could be impacted quite heavily by
replication etc.
Ah right, hadn't thought of that. So in a system using replication,
views that would use the sequence number as a key would get a severe
performance penalty? (Just checking to see if I understand the
implications.) That might be a good enough reason not to expose this as
a feature, lest people start depending on it and saying CouchDb is slow
as a result.
If this is true, I suppose it also holds for the built in
_all_docs_by_seq view?
