yup it could be really useful to trigger non transactionnal code from
there. We might use this in here with our CPSRelation product and the
rdf db we are using. I could find a project to test this in real life :)

I can take care of this if nobody else is interested to do it. I can
surely do this by the end of the week.

When you mean "detected error" you mean an exception is raised or just
the error is caught and ignored within the internals ?

Let's discuss and fix this in a second step for both before and after
