> I inadvertently created a document with an ID which contains the sequence "%da", which when URL-decoded is apparently not a valid UTF-8 character. Instead of receiving the appropriate error, I got an HTTP 200 followed by an HTTP 500, both in response to the same request.
> Additionally, the document seems to have been created, since accessing certain pages of the list of documents in the built-in web interface causes the same 500 error to show up in the CouchDB logs.
> Here is a Wireshark capture which explains the issue:
> GET /mnemosyne/id-containing-the-sequence-%da HTTP/1.1
> Host: localhost:5984
> User-Agent: Drakma/0.11.5 (SBCL 1.0.12; Linux; 2.6.22-2-686; http://weitz.de/drakma/)
> Accept: */*
> Connection: close
> HTTP/1.1 200 OK
> Transfer-Encoding: chunked
> Server: MochiWeb/1.0 (Any of you quaids got a smint?)
