Allow creation of validate_doc_update function in ViewDefinition

In the current version of couchdb it is possible to define a 'validate_doc_update' function to validate the content of new/updated documents [0]. It would be cool if python-couchdb's ViewDefinition would have an optional parameter in the constructor like "validate_fun" which (if set) creates a 'validate_doc_update' function for the view.

Thanks in advance, Markus

I think that this feature could be followed by "update handlers" which was implemented in couchdb since version 0.10 and up. I will code some prototype around theese features.

thanks in advance,

Note that this shouldn't be added to ViewDefinition. The validate_doc_update function is nothing to do with a view, and actually exists as an attribute of the design doc.
