As an unqualified POV, seeing that this got at least two people confused - -- wouldn't it make sense to be more verbose and call the thing SET TRANSACTION LOCAL (not just TRANSACTION, which is ambiguous as we have already seen). May be even SET LOCAL TO TRANSACTION (that gives at least some room for possible extensibility). I know too little about the parser to have even an idea whether this would be feasible at all.
