   > IMO throwing a proper error tuple is the "correct" Erlang approach in terms of properly utilizing the API and allowing for indirect use of CouchDB as an Erlang library. The halt based approach hides some of the details from users at the expense of behaving badly in certain situations. Pros and cons.
   
   How about setting another env var in `bin/couchdb[.cmd]` `COUCHDB_NOT_EMBEDDED=1` or some such, and do the `halt` solution, which looks most user friendly only if that env var is set, which should not be the case if somebody embeds CouchDB?
