Funny, we were just discussing this at OpenDBCon. Seems that you can't do a
full implementation of MERGE without Predicate Locking (the ability to say
"lock this table against inserts or updates of any row with key=5").
it isn't what select for update does?
It won't prevent the insertion of a row with the given predicate.
