Jens Alfke commented on COUCHDB-1529:
-------------------------------------

Note: It's possible to do this currently by iterating through the database's entire _changes feed, since it includes deletions. That's expensive, though.

> There's no efficient way to discover the complete revision tree of a document. API options like ?open_revs=all or ?conflicts will only return active/undeleted revisions; it won't discover deleted branches resulting from already-resolved conflicts.
> There should be an extra option, like "?include_deleted=true", to use along with open_revs to tell it to return even deleted leaf revisions.
