Subject: How to use the changes feed with a view as filter

I've tried to run the changes feed on a specific view, but so far I =
haven't succeeded. I'm only able to use the 'doc_ids' filter, but I =
can't filter using a view.

I've tried the following requests (using IrisCouch, couchdb version =
1.1):

    GET =
http://myaccount.iriscouch.com/mydb/_changes?filter=3D_doc_ids&doc_ids=3D[=
"_design/mydb/_view/my_view]
    GET =
http://myaccount.iriscouch.com/mydb/_changes?filter=3D_design&design=3D_de=
sign/mydb/_view/my_view

Both give me the same result whereas I would expect the 'filter=3D_design'=
  to give me the result of the map function and not the changes of the =
design document itself. The second request also works without the design =
parameter:

    GET http://myaccount.iriscouch.com/mydb/_changes?filter=3D_design

I think that also indicates I am doing something wrong. Anyone knows how =
to get this working?

Thanks,

Jeroen
