I'm not sure why you need to know which ones will commit in the future.
Hmm, I phrased that badly. We need to know which transactions *might*
commit in the future, IOW, are still in progress. Because we want to
mark those as in-progress in the snapshots that are taken in the slave.
Otherwise, when they do commit, they will suddenly become visible in the
snapshots that didn't know that they were in progress.
