yeah that is a good point. it's about 1.7 mb per 100k of json ids.
if the 'client' were actually like a rails instance running on the
same box or subnet as the db i guess that could work out, but
otherwise it's a pretty tough sell. i wonder about doing something
creative with indexing both an attribute and an id and them limiting
by start/endkey and docid.... sure seems like this should be solvable.
cheers.
