So far, so good.

OK, *if* we want to live up to this definition, we don't seem to
have that part covered. Of course, since the connection is broken
during the hypothetical crash, it seems hard to acknowledge it on
recovery, and short of 2PC I don't see how we roll it back. About
the best we could do is somehow have explicit logging of the
disposition of unacknowledged commit requests upon recovery, and
consider logging of success to be "acknowledgement". Is this
logging provided by other databases with "synchronous replication"
features?
