Yes.

Not sure --- ASENSITIVE seems to be "do whatever you want", which is
always good.

There seem to be two sections, one dealing with seeing change made by
the same transaction:

         If a cursor is open, and the SQL-transaction in which the cursor
         was opened makes a significant change to SQL-data, then whether
         that change is visible through that cursor before it is closed is
         determined as follows:

and then another talking about holdable cursors after the cursor
transaction completes:

         If a holdable cursor is open during an SQL-transaction T and it
         is held open for a subsequent SQL-transaction, then whether any
         significant changes made to SQL-data (by T or any subsequent SQL-
         transaction in which the cursor is held open) are visible through
         that cursor in the subsequent SQL-transaction before that cursor is
         closed is determined as follows:
