Summary

Design documents with matching document IDs, from databases on the same cluster, may share a mutable Javascript environment when using these design document functions: • validate_doc_update • list • filter • filter views (using view functions as filters) • rewrite • update This doesn't affect map/reduce or search (Dreyfus) index functions.
