<devil's advocate>
Surely it's being done at least as reliably as the hack in large_obj.c? :)

I don't think it's that unreliable myself: as long as the backend outputs
the standard confirmation message (e.g. "BEGIN"), we should always be
able to keep track. And a dropped connection means we switch to "not in a
transaction"
