I don't think that's a good argument for being in main. To me, it seems whether Canonical as a company is going to support something is only mildly relevant to what is in main. It seems like main is more about what Ubuntu, paritcularly core-dev, is willing to support, and couchdb doesn't seem to fit well in that criteria. In fact, it is nearly impossible to fully support correctly. And I think it is a good time for us to push these pieces down into universe. Currently, ubuntuone-installer does not install any of these packages. What does install desktopcouch, evolution-couchdb, and bindwood though, is ubuntuone-control-panel. And bindwood has always been in universe. I don't think you are suggesting we move it to main though.
