[jira] Updated: (COUCHDB-289) _all_docs should support both GET and POST

["Adam Kocoloski (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

Adam Kocoloski updated COUCHDB-289:
-----------------------------------

    Component/s: HTTP Interface

I'm +1 on this.  Also if the keys are passed in the query-string it gives us a chance to throw '414 Request-URI Too Long".  We should never pass up the opportunity to correctly use an obscure HTTP status code :-)

> As of 0.9, if you want to query multiple documents at once and load them, you have to do: 
> 'POST' /my_db/_all_docs?include_docs=true and pass the document ids.
> The problem with that approach is that the requests can't be cached. Being to make a GET request (with the obvious limitations) would make a lot of sense.
