Robert Newson resolved COUCHDB-1207.
------------------------------------

    Resolution: Not A Problem

The act of copying the .couch file to an unsecured server is not safe but that's not couchdb's fault. Replicate your _users database to the target and ensure the target server is trusted and secured, before copying databases.
