Benoit Chesneau commented on COUCHDB-1631:
------------------------------------------
What issue it is solving?
Also already commented on your gist, but it should be made switchable for the
following reason:
- This patch has a severe impact on couchapps too since it's restrain the
ability to browse multiple dbs and such.
- What about readers? Those who can read different dbs, they won't be able to
read them.
Also since it makes futon completely unsuable, I think the patch shouldn't
stop it and should also patch /_utils.
I'm -0 about it. I would prefere a lot to have a way to filter the db list
according the user which can be on the long term more useful.
