RFE

Design docs don't show up in views, so the only way to get a list of them is like this, a la the built-
in admin web app:

GET /my_awesome_db/_all_docs?startkey="_design/"&endkey="_design/ZZZ"

a built-in _design_docs view would obviate the need for such hackery.

Upon further consideration, I think it would be more useful to provide a means by which design docs could be 
included in views.  That would allow you to extract some useful information about the views available in a design 
doc.  E.g. you can return for each design doc an object with view names as keys, and the values being the 
arguments to the map() calls within the view function.
