    Unless I'm mistaken, for single node requests (ie, 5986) the update_seq 
only comes back when requested by the client [1] and in the clustered case it 
never comes back [2].
    
    Thus unless you're in a very specific case (you requested update_seq=true 
on 5986) then this ETag generation will fail to properly invalidate a response 
when a database has been changed.
