indeed.
So let' let the client doing the choice itself. I think that's indeed

was thinking to a vhost systeme àla apache

[vhost]
port = 5984
bind_address = 127.0.0.1
database_dir = /usr/local/var/lib/couchdb
view_index_dir = /usr/local/var/lib/couchdb
uri_file = /usr/local/var/lib/couchdb/couch.uri

etc . one section per vhost. Just a thought.
