> We should add values to the view query that are guranteed to be sorted first or last.
> Simple example, given an emitted key of something like [doc.tag, doc.descr] currently to get the data for a specific tag we would use something like:
> startkey=['tag_name']&endkey=['tag_name', 'ZZZZZZ'] which is a bit hackish at best.
> Perhaps startkey=['tag_name',_first_]&endkey=['tag_name',_last_]
> Obviously _first_ and _last_ are crappy. And _first_ would even be optional. But hopefully that conveys the idea.
