Dima,

I doubt you ever heard from users "we need snapshot isolation" because this
is implementation detail, rather than public behavior :-)
I already explained what we are fixing - broken TX API. 6 possible modes, 5
real modes, 2 broken modes (OPT+RC, OPT+RR), and only *two (!!!)* modes
which are really used in practice (PES+RR, OPT+SER). Do you still think it
is not broken?
