I still don't understand why change behavior that is out there for ages.
Everyone is used to calling close() and that commits things.
{quote}
I'm not used to it: its awkward for a transactional API.

I agree with you that if from the beginning people would need to call commit()
before close(), then that's better.

Then we should fix it! Just because "well its already this broken way", is no
reason at all to not change things.
We should fix things so they work in a sane way.
Previous behavior doesn't matter at all here.
