OK. While you're at it, I didn't like the long name either ;-).
We do not use the abbrevation txn anywhere, so I think it's bad to
introduce it here. I'd vote for spelling out --single-transaction,
or maybe just --single. I believe you can abbreviate long switch names
to any unique prefix, so there's not really any more typing here.
