Description

Actually all_docs is handle in couch_mrview application since the refactoring. I think it should be handled in couch_db module or at least in coouch db core rather than in an externall application. We should have indeed an API to list, fold all docs easily (without using couch_btree) without having to use the map/reduce level.
