> External indexers need an efficient way to detect changes across all 
> databases when they boot up. The _all_dbs endpoint only lists the names. We 
> propose adding include_seqs=true which would return this style output instead;
> [ {"name":"db1","update_seq",5000}, {"name":"db2","update_seq",2500} ]
> this would allow an external indexer to skip any database that has not 
> changed.
> As external indexers often store their configuration changes inside design 
> documents, it might also be helpful if the update_seq of the latest change to 
> any design document was also included. This will allow external indexers to 
> skip even databases with changes as long as those changes are not to design 
> documents;
> [ {"name":"db1","update_seq",5000, "ddoc_update_seq":23}, 
> {"name":"db2","update_seq",2500, "ddoc_update_seq":2500} ]
