But there are document databases that have schemas, like couchDB.

So then it boils down to the cap theorem, and ease of ad-hoc querying vs ease of replication/scaling out. Which is more interesting.

Or do people try and push "not being able to validate your data" as some kind of feature?

I've been using couchdb to sync local and remote copies of a single database for a medium sized product and it is really convenient for that use case.
