Couchdb has a nice feature that allows anonymous users to write to the
_users database. This allows new users to sign up. A logged in user (ie
valid session) has the ability to update/change their password as they have
update privileges to their *own* _user document.

I envisage a scenario when I need to reset the password for a user as they
have forgotten it.

Is it possible to have a privileged user (but not admin) user that is
permitted to make changes to other _user documents? (password changes)...
but, at the same time still permitting anonymous creation of new documents?
