> Everytime I create a reduce function, I also make a separate view that has a byte-identical map (w/o the reduce), just to have access to the map that gets generated anyway. It seems like the API could make the map side available, even when there is a reduce. Keeping the two view functions identical is hard to do without automating it, and the consequences of failing to keep them in sync can be expensive.
> This would require a change to the external api, because currently the only way to distinguish between map and reduce functions is through view name. The new way would require something like /my-db/_view/mydesign/mymapreduce?map_only=true or somesuch.
