It could be a new protocol message. Currently there are no transaction
oriented protocol messages (other than the "transaction status" in
ReadyForQuery). But would it not make sense to have TransactionBegin,
TransactionCommit, and TransactionAbort in the protocol? Would that
make it easier for the client-side failover to keep track of what
transactions are pending or committed and need to be verified after a
failover?
