Bubbling up some thoughts from an irc discussion about this with @wohali,
@rnewson, and myself. It's worth noting that we already support the
multi-queries approach in the `_view` API, so the functionality reverted in
#1143 was actually consistent with existing API precedent. If folks feel
strongly enough about separating out the multi query logic into dedicated API
endpoints, I think it makes sense to do the same for views as well for
consistency.
@rnewson pointed out an alternative option would be to use the
`Content-Type` response header to declare the response body format. This would
provide a deterministic way for static languages to understand the response
body by what's declared in the headers. It could be ` x-vnd.couchdb.view vs
x-vnd.couchdb.multi-query` or whatever.
