+1. 1. No one has worked on a fix since its contribution prior to 2.0. 2. The code will always be in git in an older revision if someone is looking for it. 3. We have #592 which describes the fundamental problem that needs to be resolved. (By the way, with my PMC hat on, you should unassign this issue from yourself unless you're actively working on it *right now*.)

I heard from Robert Newson that he and Benjamin Bastian found that some time ago doing testing with deletion and recreation of docs emitting same keys in the views. I propose to remove view changes code from mrview and its mention from documentation, as it seem that people keep trying to use those for filtered replication or getting a false impression that it's a simple fix in fabric. Not to mention that the current implementation quite complicates mrviews code and takes space in view files with building unneeded seq and kseq btrees. We can re-implement this feature later in more robust way as there are clearly a demand for it. Please share your opinion. Regards, Eric
