Ah, I should have explained that. I might need the SERIALIZABLE
isolation level in the future (this code doesn't need it, but other
things in the same transaction might require it).
In addition, it occurred to me that I get the INSERT failure only if
there is a suitable PRIMARY KEY/UNIQUE constraint on the table. I
haven't got that in all cases, so I need that advisory locking anyway,
I fear.
