The concept of distributed transaction does not make sense on GAE
because there is only one datastore.

It supports regular transactions on GAE to the extent that GAE
supports them but you have to use the GAE run_in_transaction API
explictely.

It does support distributed transactions with multiple database
connection to postgresq, mysql and/or firebird.
I think this is related to the topic because it is a distinctive
feature of web2py.
