> Any request that was protected by CouchDB's native CSRF prevention system will return a X-CouchDB-CSRF-Valid response header with value "true".
> Indicate on every screen whether this happens or not. Doesn't have to be prominent but should always be present (indicating protected vs not protected clearly).
> Suggestion is the phrase "CSRF protected" appears in green vs "CSRF vulnerable" in red somewhere in the bottom left where Logout and logo live.
