> There has been some discussion on IRC etc about how to support 'native' view servers, such as 'erlview' in a generic way.  Currently using erlview requires you to modify couch.
> I'm attaching a patch as a first attempt at supporting this.  In summary, the patch now looks up a new 'native_query_servers' config file section for a list of view_server names with a {Module, Func, Args} style string specifying the entry-point of the view server.  The code now passes an additional atom around indicating if the PID is 'native' or 'external', and map_docs takes advantage of this to avoid the json step.  This patch allows erlview to work for me, but in theory any erlang code could be used here.
> I'm very new at erlang - please let me know if I should make stylistic or other changes, or indeed if I should take a different approach completely.
