It would be trivial to pipe the output of the stream to the `client` yourself. The benefit of that being that rethink doesn't have to auth the clients.

This is a preferred solution because the only efficient alternative is to inspect every insert or update, manually determining which clients care about those changes.

It seems to me this would marry very well with SockJS/Shoe or socket.io ... Almost transparently in fact.
