I would agree to this. Likewise 2PC, whatever we do to make it
perfect, we're left with unresolvable problems at least for now.
Doesn't it meet your requirements if we have a means to know the last
transaction on the current session is locally committed or aborted?
We are already internally managing last committed LSN. I think we can
do the same thing about transaction abort and last inserted LSN and we
can expose them any way. This is way simpler than the (maybe)
uncompletable attempt to fill up the deep gap.
regards.
