I'd be unhappy with the commit part of the original request for commit or
rollback and in the first instance wouldn't this be a candidate for the client
app. to perform?
Obviously the server may not detect if the client just goes away, unless
keepalive is on, but only the client knows that the user isn't waving the mouse
around the screen looking for that bit of information needed to complete the
query underconstruction.
