+; CouchDB will not normally allow a database downgrade to a previous version if
+; the new version added new fields to the database file header structure. You
+; can disable this protection by setting this to false. We recommend
+; re-enabling the protection after you have performed the downgrade but it is
+; not mandatory to do so.
+; Note that some future versions of CouchDB might not support downgrade at all,
+; whatever value this is set to. In those cases CouchDB will refuse to

Review Comment:

```
; allow_downgrade = false
```
I don't mind either way.
