Alexander Shorin commented on COUCHDB-2237:
-------------------------------------------
How about just `feed=stream` instead of `feed=continuous`? The output is really
steam of JSON objects, it has no limit (unless the relative parameter was
passed) and it's quite short and clean. The issue with the watch/follow/stream
that we have to creates a unnatural constrictions ( you shouldn't be able to
use feed parameter among with watch/follow/stream) as like as we creating
multiple way to operate with the same things.
> Add a 'live' sugar for 'continuous'

> With PouchDB we generally try to stick to the same param names as Couch, we
> are even changing some we implemented first to be compatible
> (https://github.com/pouchdb/pouchdb/issues/2193)
> However 'continuous' sucks to type, its confusing to type and spell and
> everyone gets it wrong, we still support it but switched to documenting it as
> 'live' and life is awesome again
