Description

As recently discussed/reported in the users mailing list, view groups keep databases open all the time (without the need to) which is a problem once max_dbs_open is reached.

The relevant thread is the following:

The following patch, with an etap test, fixes it. It's also a simpler solution for COUCHDB-926.
