I was thinking about the case where an object is registered with a
transaction and its connection is closed.  The connection, in general,
doesn't have a good way to ask about the transaction.  If the connection
is closed, at least there will be an error at commit time.  If the
connection is closed and re-opened, I think it will just do something
strange.
