Isn't [couch_httpd_auth] a couch-wide setting? It needs to be per database. Otherwise, there's no public access at all, which would greatly diminish the usefulness/uniqueness of using couchdb. Would it go against CouchDB design philosophy to have a _user role pre-defined, and tied to the _users database? If not, I think it would make sense and be useful to many developers. Where is the place to suggest and discuss this as a feature? Thanks, Marcus
