The patch itself is pretty simple, but I'm unclear on the use case. Jonathan, can you elaborate a bit?

Thanks,

Joe

p.s. I'm on a business trip in Asia again, so my responses may be delayed a bit.

Hi Joe,
We are using the dblink module on Sensor servers to provide summarization services to a Central server. Sensors are in the business of populating certain Postgres databases, and the Central is in the business of populating a summary Postgres database. The issue in our situation is that the Central server does an explicit BEGIN transaction some time before it calls the dblink_open() routine. On the Sensors, we were getting many "there is already a transaction in progress" warnings, and overflowing our log storage. Is this patch the right way to go about this?
Thanks,
Jonathan
