I'll let you decide; please choose whichever way you consider would
give us the better result.  The second one seems to be a band-aid
that trades one bug with another bug, so it may be prudent to leave
it separate.  It would make it easier for a future change that fixes
the lower-layer transaction processing to refer to it, with "earlier
we took thw two step approach, which had these downsides. now we fix
the issue for real".

Thanks.
