clariontools opened a new issue #878: /_all_docs with keys=[] on _users using 
POST or GET returns error not_found for valid keys
URL: https://github.com/apache/couchdb/issues/878
 
 
   <!--- Provide a general summary of the issue in the Title above -->
   
   ## Expected Behavior
   <!--- If you're describing a bug, tell us what should happen -->
   <!--- If you're suggesting a change/improvement, tell us how it should work 
-->
   Expected _all_docs request with keys=[] using either POST or GET to return 
matches with response for valid _users _id when admin-only databases, such as  
_users  when accessed with admin's privileges.
   
   ## Current Behavior
   <!--- If describing a bug, tell us what happens instead of the expected 
behavior -->
   <!--- If suggesting a change/improvement, explain the difference from 
current behavior -->
   When requesting _all_docs with valid keys=[] from _users  when accessed with 
admin's privileges, each key in the request is returned with the response 
"error": "not_found".  all_docs with keys=[] works as expected on 
non-admin-only databases, so it appears to affect at very least the _users db 
and possibly all admin-only dbs when accessed with admin privileges.
   
   ## Possible Solution
   <!--- Not obligatory, but suggest a fix/reason for the bug, -->
   <!--- or ideas how to implement the addition or change -->
   
   ## Steps to Reproduce (for bugs)
   <!--- Provide a link to a live example, or an unambiguous set of steps to -->
   <!--- reproduce this bug. Include code to reproduce, if relevant -->
   1. Gather one or more _id key(s) from your _user db
   2. With the key(s) do a POST or GET with the keys hitting the _all_docs 
endpoint.
   3. Example with GET .../_users/_all_docs??keys=["org.couchdb.user:jan"] 
and/or POST with the appropriate JSON object as per _all_docs documentation.
   4. The interesting thing is that a GET with 
../_users/_all_docs?key="org.couchdb.user:jan" (not keys with array but single 
key) does "get" the job done.
   
   ## Context
   <!--- How has this issue affected you? What are you trying to accomplish? -->
   <!--- Providing context helps us come up with a solution that is most useful 
in the real world -->
   Trying to validate multiple _users ids (keys) exist with a single call, also 
be able to take the validated _users and call bulkDocs to update each user.  It 
is very possible that bulkDocs also has a similar issue when dealing with the 
admin-only _users db, but have not gotten that far yet and would submit a 
different issue for that problem.
