------------------------------------
Resolution: Fixed
> Users unable to delete own _users doc
> -------------------------------------
>
> Key: COUCHDB-1502
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-1502
> Project: CouchDB
> Issue Type: Bug
> Affects Versions: 1.2
> Reporter: Robert Newson
> Assignee: Robert Newson
> Fix For: 1.2.1
>
>
> Since the introduction of system db security a user cannot delete their own
> _users doc. This is because we test that the "name" field of the updated
> document matches the userCtx. It doesn't in the case of a DELETE because the
> body only contains _id, _rev and _deleted.
> Changing the code to compare the username embedded in the doc _id instead is
> a fix.
