Ewww... guess I'll leave it at Postmodern then for the time being.
It's good to defer this stuff to a separate high-level software
package.
I'll check out later whether your changes work.

I see. An easy fix.

Understandable. As I see it, one would have to fiddle with timeouts
and flags, and probably add some coordination code, too.
And most likely a bunch of this would have to happen at the CLSQL
level. I might look into it when I get a round tuit.
Thanks!
