Replication Conflict View
Unlike other posted solutions, this model will allow the user to see both
replication conflict documents and their associated main (parent) document.
This is particularly useful when one is attempting to resolve replication
errors using "difference of two docs" as it puts the parent and child documents
in the same view.
