Robert Newson commented on COUCHDB-464:
---------------------------------------
Because people using couchdb-lucene with couchdb would prefer to read couch.log
for the log messages, and I suspect that applies to other externals/addons, etc.
It's clumsy if all addons are forced to log differently, it reduces the degree
that addons can be integrated. Since couchdb has support for grafting external
processes (which actually *can* log, I think), it's a shame that
db_update_notification processes cannot.
That said, for couchdb-lucene, I intend to get off db_update_notification
entirely and move indexing into the the external searching process instead
(typicall mapped to _fti). I think I didn't do that before because the external
was only started on demand? I forget.
> Allow POST to _log for external processes

> consistently.
