What in heck is a named transaction, and why should we care?

                        

Isn't this just another name for a subtransaction or inner transaction that can be separately committed?

   begin transaction bar;
   ...
   begin transaction foo;
   ...
   commit foo;
   ...
   rollback bar;



foo's work is still committed.

People have been hacking this up using dblink calls, I believe, but that's a horrid kludge.
