The reason why it's different is simple: couch_httpd/chttpd are frontend
modules that provides HTTP API for internal stuff like couch_att.
The reason why couch_httpd better to avoid use here as that this module is
for backdoor interface while chttpd that used for the front, cluster one, may
eventually start work by different rules.
The reason why chttpd/couch_httpd shouldn't be here is that fabric is a
layer to run cluster wide operations after http request get processed.
Also, have you checked `fabric:att_receiver/2`? Looks like exactly what you
need here.
