I haven't read this thread closely, but the general behavior of the
backend assumes that it's very very cheap to re-acquire a lock that's
already held by the current transaction. It's probably worth
maintaining a local counter just so you can keep that being true, even
if there were no other need for it. (Since I've not read the thread,
I'll refrain from asking how you're gonna clean up at transaction end
if there's no local memory of what locks you hold.)
