Hi folks, I was talking with aquarius and rnewson on IRC about a
possible change to the format of the _changes feed. We agreed that it
made more sense for the feed=continuous mode to emit individual
newline-delimited valid JSON Objects and skip the commas that are
currently included. This will allow consumers to split on newlines and immediately decode the result without any post-processing. feed=normal
and feed=longpoll would stay unchanged.

So, just to confirm that I understand this correctly, the
feed=continuous mode would print lots of lines which look like this, one
for each change:

{"seq":3,"id":"5643c5b300e3065839a5bde0b7332948","changes": [{"rev":"3-825cb35de44c433bfb2df415563a19de"}]}

and if you pass since=<whatever> and there's more than one change since
then, the feed would start off containing more than one line?

Exactly. In the case of a timeout I'm planning on the server sending one last line

{"last_seq": 1234}

Best, Adam
