Hello, the term 'Distributed Transactions' is usually used to identify an interface developed by X/Open that is also known as XA. Basically this involves exposing details on the transaction process into an external program (the so-called transaction monitor), and the decoupling of a transaction from the termination of an user session (the transaction may be rolled back/committed later by the transaction monitor, after the user session has been gone).
And as Elke said already, this is not supported and not planned.
