Adam Kocoloski reopened COUCHDB-462:
------------------------------------


Damien objected to this patch on IRC because it's not performant (it does a full scan over the by_id btree instead of maintaining a separate index) and because it's not flexible enough (e.g. no way to identify conflicts from a particular document type).  His suggestion was just to let users define a custom view if they need aggregate information on conflicts.

I understand and agree with the performance concerns.  I worry that we aren't doing a good job of helping users develop conflict-aware applications, but we could probably alleviate that with some extra hand-holding in Futon.

> As the HTTPd and view layers are a bit outside my specialty I figured I should ask for a Review before Commit.
