Yes, indeed! That is exactly what I want.
I think you'll be more interested in the "hard" delete feature ...
In brief, it means that deleting a document in CouchDB
eventually leads to full disk space reclamation.

Subject: Re: Current Release still 2.0.0
2.0.0 is still the latest release.
CouchDB committers got together very recently (see dev@ thread) to discuss
roadmap (3.0 and beyond) but also discussed minor release. The release
engineering team at Cloudant are going to provide some assistance to improve
CouchDB's release processes (automation, quality, etc), so we should see a
2.1.0 as an early part of that effort.
Clustered purge is actually quite hard but it is in development so keep an
eye on the dev@ mailing list. Even when it lands, I think you'll be more
interested in the "hard" delete feature we discussed at length at the
aforementioned couchdb summit. In brief, it means that deleting a document
in CouchDB eventually leads to full disk space reclamation. There's a
careful operation to perform to know when this is safe to do (we need all
indexes and replications to have "seen" the delete) and another careful
operation to actually remove all traces (we'll leverage the clustered purge
work for that).
Hope that helps,
Robert Newson
