   I would like to argue against the stance to not to add a fallback.
   
   Custom revs *are* supported and no limitations have been specified. 
Especially considering this limitation is a bit "random" from an API user 
standpoint. Hence, there might be a lot of users out in the wild who are 
generating customs revs and their databases can randomly "fail". This is what 
happened to us. We've been running for 4 years like this at multiple clients 
and it worked fine until it didn't, in the middle of a live broadcast :/
   
   I understand that a fallback is a slow path, but it's a lot better than what 
seems like a "random" failure.
