To add _bulk_get support to PouchDB you'd want to copy my version of
replicate.js into PouchDB itself. It has a couple of extra require()
calls that PouchDB would not need. Otherwise it is nearly identical to
the standard replicate.js.
If anything fails we just assume it's not available and switch to using
GET for the rest of the replication:
https://github.com/dholth/pouchdb-bulk-get/blob/master/replicate.js#L308
The patch file is outdated but replicate.js is up-to-date as of today.
Having someone else write the Erlang part is fine by me. Here's the
couchbase _bulk_get which appears to have been recently documented.
Claims to be multipart/mime only.

I did think my design of allowing *all* GET options in _bulk_get was
easier to understand/document and it would be nice to be able to pass
common parameters as GET parameters to the POST _bulk_get request.
CouchDB has enough inconsistencies in its API as it is.
My CouchDB 2.0 patch attempts to allow all the GET options in _bulk_get
but I have not really tested it.
