Your JavaScript function should be able to accept the POST body and use =
it to decide whether to return true or false. So you can parse the JSON =
in your _filter fun and return true or false based on a docid match.

I hope that helps.

Thanks for hacking that patch. I owe you some patch application wuffie =
b/c I know you have the _list patch for couch.js too.

Thanks for the hard work!

Cheers,
Chris
