Yeah, we would avoid introducing another query parameter by doing so.
However, allowing the values `true` and `false` suggests a boolean type.
In fact, it is currently documented as boolean. Of course, we can
change the type to string, but then having a string type with values
`true`, `false`, and `attachments` is unintuitive and ugly. Instead, we
could introduce two new query parameter values (e.g. `yes` and
`with_attachments`) that don't suggest that it's a boolean, while
deprecating the values `true` and `false`.

> I wonder if this is as easy a fix as COUCHDB-549 was?
