I am attempting to create a new language implementation. The language is Andl 
(andl.org), so the handler is plandl.
This is a question about executing SPI queries from inside plandl.

The documentation makes it clear that SPI allows nested queries; that in some 
instances it will be necessary to call SPI_push() and SPI_pop(), but in others 
this will be handled automatically. Se 
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.5/interactive/spi-spi-push.html.

It is an important design feature of plandl to allow nested queries.

My question is: where are the transaction boundaries if the inner/outer query 
do or do not contain BEGIN/ABORT/COMMIT? Do they nest, or does an inner COMMIT 
finish a transaction started by an outer BEGIN, or is it ignored?

Regards
