   we have a general prohibition at 
https://github.com/apache/couchdb/blob/3.x/src/couch/src/couch_doc.erl#L377 for 
unknown special fields. I'm not sure it's wise to expand the couch_doc clauses 
to allow all `_replication_`-prefixed fields but others can comment if they 
feel strongly.
   
   replications of `_replicator` db should be unaffected as the first clause 
allows any write by a user with the `_replicator` role.
   
   The PR is trying to prevent users from being misled if they attempt to 
influence the replicator in undocumented ways.
