   2.2.0 and forward will have a new way of defining maximum document sizes and may or may not have maximum allowed attachment sizes as well. See for reference: #1253 #1200 
   
   These will, however, be set at a server-wide level, not on a per-database setting.
   
   Unfortunately, the view server (couchjs) subsystem intentionally has no facility for accessing information as regards attachments. This was done intentionally very early on in CouchDB's development to ensure rapid performance of view building, even when documents are large. We don't expect this to change any time soon.
   
   I hate to close this as a wontfix, but I hope that the above will provide some hope that you'll be able to achieve what you want soon. I would encourage you to comment on #1253 with your thoughts, and any enhancements you might think would be useful, so that we can enforce useful limits without having to resort to an inefficient VDU.
