Hi All,
I am new here, and am writing to ask your advise on whether CouchDB is a
good fit for my needs. (*) Thanks in advance for considering my case below.

As I approach this project again after shelving it I am hopeful there are
some users who are understanding and knowledgeable who can take a min or
two to help steer me in any way they think may help.
As I understand, you plan to have a single document, which would probably end up
being unwieldy: why not to break it up into constituent sub-documents (nodes and
edges) ?
However, I have some experience in storing graphs in CouchDB as a collections of
nodes and edges documents (with Views to query them), but it ended up not a pretty
sight: have you already looked into a proper graph database (like Neo4J) as
persistence mechanism ?
You may also be interested in RDF data stores (OpenRDF ?).
