What do you think?

I think you're trying to get us to undo commit 2e517818f, which
is not going to happen.  See the threads that led up to that:

It looks to me like you can just change the transaction property
settings immediately after SPI_start_transaction if you want to.
Compare this bit in SnapBuildExportSnapshot:

        StartTransactionCommand();

        /* There doesn't seem to a nice API to set these */
        XactIsoLevel = XACT_REPEATABLE_READ;
        XactReadOnly = true;

Also look at the implementation of SPI_commit_and_chain,
particularly RestoreTransactionCharacteristics.

Thanks for sharing past threads.
I was understand how SPI_start_transaction went no-operation.

I also understand how to set the transaction property.
However, it was a little disappointing that the transaction property
could not be changed only by SPI commands.

Of course, executing SET TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL with SPI_execute will result in error.

SPI_execute("SET TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL SERIALIZABLE", false, 0);

(Log Output)
ERROR:  SET TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL must be called before any query
CONTEXT:  SQL statement "SET TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL SERIALIZABLE"

Thanks for answering.
