Alexander Shorin commented on COUCHDB-1399:
-------------------------------------------
Would `_state` name be more convenient? May be I'm wrong, but I'd like to count
`_rev` as document state id, because it's better describes functional of this
field: last document state, conflict document states etc.
Also, there are `_revisions` and `_attachments/revpos` fields that should be
noticed too as well as `db/_rev_count` resource and `rev`, `rev_info`,
`open_revs` document resource parameters. Have I missed something?
> Rename _rev to _mvcc or _lock
