That would be another approach, but going through the REST API is 
(comparatively) slow. JS API calls have to be marshaled into HTTP requests, 
then unmarshaled into native API calls, then the same process in reverse for 
the response.

(TouchDB, the ancestor of Couchbase Lite, also worked this way. It got a lot 
faster when we refactored it to connect the front-end API directly to the 
engine without the HTTP layer.)
