I'm building a couch app that works with it's own database of documents or as an add-in to any existing database of documents. In the case where the app is added to an existing database, I would like to scan the documents and add a little "meta" section to each one for storing information relevant to the app. I am very excited by the idea of "mix in" applications, but this raises a few questions:
Is it wrong to "pollute" the existing documents with my extra meta section? Are there any thoughts on the best value to use as a key for my data section to minimize collisions? Is a single master GUID my only choice? Thanks for the feedback. -Justin
