   Was surprised by this when upgrade from v1 to v3. Docs indicate that view support is there:
   
   
   > Etag
   > The Etag HTTP header field is used to show the revision for a document, or a view.
   > ETags have been assigned to a map/reduce group (the collection of views in a single design document). Any change to any of the indexes for those views would generate a new ETag for all view URLs in a single design doc, even if that specific view’s results had not changed.
   > Each _view URL has its own ETag which only gets updated when changes are made to the database that effect that index. If the index for that specific view does not change, that view keeps the original ETag head (therefore sending back 304 - Not Modified more often).
