I really like your write-up.

I'm sad that the Couchapp thing never took off or is getting de-emphasized. That was one of the really brain-bendy ideas about Couch that I loved, that these DB-side applications could also replicate to other people.

I'm only just catching up with Couch and finding the db-per-user stuff. Do you know of anyone shipping a Couch instance inside thick clients, like a traditional desktop application?

I guess CouchDB is not the easiest thing to install in a non-technical person computer, but PouchDB, on the other hand, is as easy as it can get.

I don't understand how projects like remotestorage, for example, aren't using Pouch and Couch and instead try to develop their own replication protocol without success for many years.

PouchDB is my best guess

Agreed. PouchDB is the go to if you want an "embedded couch".
