Hi Ufuk, Great initiative in general I agree with pretty much everything in the proposal.
Some minor comments: With these changes savepoints and checkpoints become pretty much the same thing so we might as well drop one of the concepts and just refer to checkpoints as savepoints that are discarded by the system. How do you plan to keep track of the available savepoints? It would be great to provide a rest api or something to query it. Otherwise devs need to have a lot of custom bookkeeping outside of the system. This might be inevitable though...
