IMHO this is an oversight, not a design feature.  That's why I pointed
it out and planned to correct it.

I think with the Prepare message we should _not_ abort the transaction
if it fails -- if it's outside transaction control, it shouldn't affect
the current transaction (So we would open a subtransaction, process the
message, and rollback if it fails.)
