Yeah. The potential performance impact of all the TransactionStmts

Probably. One part that may be tricky though is the location of the
constants we'd like to make generic, but perhaps this could be handled
by using a dedicated variable type that just maps to int? It does not
seem like a mandatory requirement to add that everywhere as a first
step, either.
