Sounds plausible offhand.

AFAIR there isn't any essential semantics to the ordering of the queue
entries, so you can probably get away with reordering if that makes life
any easier.
Also, rather than labeling each entry individually, it might be better
to keep a separate list for each level of transaction. Then instead of
relabeling, you'd just concat the subtrans list to its parent's. Seems
like this should be faster and less storage.
