1) It depends what your component does. I don't think you can assume that most components will need to run in a transaction with anything else.
2) If COM+ is the solution for generic components - what will you do when requiring transactions for remote Web Services? There are clearly trade-offs. Personally I'll judge on a case by case basis.
