Bug 427622 is invalid because Bindwood no longer has the problem that caused it to create a huge database. There is nothing stopping other applications using desktopcouch from making the same mistake, though (repeatedly writing the same data to a document, which creates extra revisions and balloons the size of the DB, almost all of which is recovered by compacting), which is why we should guard against that.
