Do they?  I don't write enough transactional code, but I would have
thought that break, continue or return would have been a normal,
expected exit from the do-statement and therefore should do a
db.commit(), not a db.rollback().  Do you think you could add an
example of how the transaction do-statement would be used in such a
way that these would be the desired semantics?
