Much of what I'm doing requires a logged in user, cookie data, et al. This has to include ajax routes, because it is spec that we block spoofing by people who try to bypass the interface (which also means data validation has to be done server-side). Since those authentication and validation routines are already part of the server code proper, I don't want to duplicate/rewrite them for couch. > There is probably a performance advantage of going around the > other server also.
