For streaming transactions this issue is not there. Because this
problem will only occur if the last change is *SPEC INSERT * and after
that there is no other UPDATE/INSERT change because on that change we
are resetting the toast table. Now, if the transaction has only *SPEC
INSERT* without SPEC CONFIRM or any other INSERT/UPDATE then we will
not stream it. And if we get any next INSERT/UPDATE then only we can
select this for stream but in that case toast will be reset. So as of
today for streaming mode we don't have this problem.
