Excellent analysis. A futher problem is that this could cause dangling=20
references, and a subsequent POSKeyError, since persistent objects can be=
=20
passed from one transaction to the next inside the exception and tracebac=
k.

The same applies to your prorosed fix. Is there a need to allow the error=
=20
handling transaction to commit? I propose it always be aborted.
