I figure I might as well jump in with both feet. At a minimum I might get a
lesson in basic transaction control.
The obvious problem with long transactions in a web environment is that
UserTransaction only deals with the current thread, but TransactionManager
has getTransaction and resume methods. Does that open the door for getting a
transaction object, saving it in a session and restoring it to the current
thread when the user comes back?
