This whole discussion seems to be considering only the case of PREPAREs
issued as SQL statements, by a programmer who is fully cognizant of
where he's beginning and ending transactions.

The issue I was trying to raise at the beginning of the thread was: what
about prepared statements created by client libraries (think JDBC for
instance) using the V3 protocol Parse message?  Rolling back a
successful prepare because of a later transaction failure seems like
exactly not what such a library would want.
