I would not be against such a table-level switch, but the exact
behaviour would need to be specified more closely before this became a
TODO item, IMHO.

If someone has a 100 GB table, they would not appreciate the table being
truncated if a transaction to load 1 GB of data aborts, forcing recovery
of the 100 GB table.
