["Benoit Chesneau (Commented) (JIRA)" <ji...@apache.org>]

    [ https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COUCHDB-769?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=13139992#comment-13139992 ] 

Benoit Chesneau commented on COUCHDB-769:
-----------------------------------------

is there any updated version of this patch? What do you want to add?

I was thinking we could reuse the same system used in couch_index and allows the user to pass any module in the settings that could handle attachment writing. Then we can call these functions.
