Adam Kocoloski commented on COUCHDB-523:
----------------------------------------

Hi Anand, I'd like to see some of the other commenters weigh in on that one.  Personally I think it'd be a bit of a hassle to name each of my queries in a multi-query request.  I think I prefer the order-preserving behavior of an Array, where I could construct my queries Array in order and then just concatenate the rows from the individual responses.

I can say that implementing the API as you've written it is not much more difficult than the Array-based one.

> It would be useful if I could do a single POST to a view to retrieve multiple ranges specified by startkey, endkey.
> The format could be as follows:
> { "ranges": [ { "startkey": "a", "endkey": "c" }, { "startkey":"g", "endkey":"z" } ] }
