New description:

 As of OGR 1.9, [http://gdal.org/ogr/drv_couchdb.html CouchDB Spatial] is
 now supported, but QGIS does not allow you to add the layer. It would be
 good if either

  a. CouchDB could be added to the "add vector layer" database tab; or
  a. have a place where you can specify an OGR URL directly.

 b. is probably better, because then other data sources can be used before
 they've been officially added to QGIS.
