Description

Based on answers to questions like "is it possible to upload documents and attachments at the same time?" in IRC, it seems that there is a multipart API that allows that sort of thing, but I've been told that it's not documented (and haven't been able to find any mention of it via searching).

• How can it be invoked?
• Can it be used instead of bulk_docs? Ie. for multiple documents at once.
• What are the _rev semantics (ATM each attachment increments the _rev by one; would it be possible to have a document at _rev 1 with all attachments?)?
