-------------------------------------
Summary: Return any type of 4xx error from validate_doc_update
Key: COUCHDB-2269
URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-2269
Project: CouchDB
Issue Type: Improvement
Security Level: public (Regular issues)
Components: HTTP Interface
Reporter: Florent Jaby
When writing a validate_doc_update function it is only possible to throw one of
the two following errors
{unauthorized: "message"} and {forbidden:"message"}
Since validations aren't always only needed for authorization pruposes, it
would be meaningful to be able to throw different errors. If only one should be
added, it perhaps should be 400 Bad Request first.
A simple use case could be that I'm limiting the size of certain fields.
