The first of these three patches looks good to me, so I committed it.
I am not convinced that the others are ready to go in. AFAICS, there
hasn't been any discussion of whether a list of non-transactional
features would be a useful thing to have, or if so where it should be
located in the docs and what should go into it. I'm not necessarily
opposed to adding something, but I think it needs some actual
discussion before we commit anything.
