Chris Anderson commented on COUCHDB-886:
----------------------------------------

Ryan's proposal is what I was proposing:

the required-query stuff overrides any defaults (if both specify a param)

I'm not sure about naming, I just want it to be clear to users which is which...

so "defaults" and "query" (maybe 'defaults' is better than 'default' as 
'default' is a javascript keyword, which can be a surprise if you use it 
unquoted)

or

"query" and "enforced-query"

or something else.

The only requirement being that one of them is named "query" for the sake of 
backwards compatibility.

> Add option to set query options, defined in rewrites.json, as default

> With the latest version of CouchDB the URL parameters are not taken into 
> account when the rewrites.json file specifies the same ones for the 
> appropriate entry. See the following example:
>   {
>     "from" : "/general/reports",
>     "to" : "_list/general_reports/general_reportsByDate",
>     "query" : {
>       "descending" : true,
>       "limit" : 51
>     }
>   }
> default values: http://mozmill.hskupin.info/general/reports
> custom values: http://mozmill.hskupin.info/general/reports?limit=10
> Whether which URL you are loading, the values from rewrites.json are always 
> used. Once the limit entry gets removed from that file, the URL parameter is 
> used and 10 rows are displayed.
> As proposed by Benoit query entries should be explicitly allowed to have a 
> default value. Otherwise the value from rewrites.json has the priority.
> "query": {
>  "key": { "value": ":var", "default": 1}
> }
> Can true be used instead of a number? It could be confusing this way, 
> especially when the value is also a number.
