I'm pretty new to CouchDB so please pardon me if this is a silly
question, but can you connect the results of one view to another?

Imagine I have a bunch of children documents and each child has a
favorite color. I also have a bunch of toy documents and each toy has a
color. I want to build a list of what toys each child will like based on
its color.=20

I can make a view to emit(color, name) for each toy and something
similar for each child. But then do I have to connect the two in my
code? If your dataset gets large that seems like a lot of work gets
pushed out to the client end. Is there any way to construct a view that
links these together?
