Wow you're fast. 

You probably shouldn't call dontReduce in queryViewDocsFrom, as recent versions 
of couchdb will return an error if this parameter is applied to a view without 
a reduce function. This could easily happen in the case of the linked documents 
feature I mentioned, or in the case of avoiding large objects in an index. 
Also, include_docs=true will cause an error if reduce=false isn't present when 
a view does have a reduce function, but at least it's easier to add the 
dontReduce than to remove it.

Thanks,
Justin Reardon
