Hi!

I don't see how the command can be atomic internal to the server. We have no transactional DDL in any engine... I can not see how we would have an "all or nothing" case occur, especially with a system failure.

Cheers,
        -Brian

It is an atomic "command" but that is not an atomic action.

Really? That's potentially unsettling.
