I think that defeats the safety of prepared transactions in many cases.
Let's say you PREPARE TRANSACTION on two systems, and then COMMIT
PREPARED on the first one. Then, you go to COMMIT PREPARED on the second
one, and the time has lapsed so you can't (and you can't rollback the
first one, either).
