rnewson commented on issue #2015: parse_revid  - Badarg error in HTTP request
URL: https://github.com/apache/couchdb/issues/2015#issuecomment-487292141
 
 
   the `== 32` clauses dated back to 2009 when deterministic _rev was first 
introduced. I'm inferring it was done as a space/time optimization (integers 
are smaller than the binary text expression of them), so perhaps a fallback to 
just using the rev if the decode fails would be acceptable after all.
   
   Given the future foundationdb transition and its constraints on key/value 
sizes, this is probably a good time to make a project decision on whether users 
can generate their own rev values and, if so, what constraints we might apply 
to them (a maximum length seems very likely to be one of them).
