Just to clarify: of course, the concurrent_abort callback only sends a
message to the subscriber, which then (in our current implementation)
upon reception of the concurrent_abort message opts to prepare the
transaction. Different implementations would be possible.

I would recommend this more explicit API and communication over hiding
the concurrent abort in a prepare callback.
