------------------------------------------

Hi Dale,

I implemented the feature and it seems it does not have a lot of fans (see https://github.com/apache/couchdb-chttpd/pull/28)

While it was in review I additionally realized that replication still uses continuous and stream would not be a good name for it. So I think we need to think about it more.

Maybe we can change continuous in version 3 as a breaking change for both (changes feed and replication).

> With PouchDB we generally try to stick to the same param names as Couch, we are even changing some we implemented first to be compatible (https://github.com/pouchdb/pouchdb/issues/2193)
> However 'continuous' sucks to type, its confusing to type and spell and everyone gets it wrong, we still support it but switched to documenting it as 'live' and life is awesome again
