Consider the following code:
log.on('add', function (node) {
console.log(node.value)
})If the node was inserted locally, node.value will be the literal object that was added. If it was inserted and received remotely via replication, it will be a Buffer object that needs to be converted to a string and JSON.parse()d.
The encoding of the node's value ought to be consistent regardless of where it came from. I think we'll break somebody's code either way, so I'd be happier seeing it default to the former (raw value, not a buffer).
