I think we should keep in mind that we don't want to break the ability
to replicate. Maybe a /db/_replicate channel that we don't break or
something...

I do like all the power these give us. Maybe it's worth thinking about
applying all the rewrite magic on a non-5984 port so we don't have to
worry about not breaking the database. Complicated.
