The "system transaction"????

I seem to have forgotten about that item.

Agreed.  

Mike Nordell and I had tried to deal with those in relation to increasing the 
valid page sizes back in FB v1.0 but the code base was far too ugly.  

I tried to tackle it, again, more recently but ran into the problem that "page 
size" is a notion which is used for both on disk pages but also other non-disk 
page/in memory structures. So, I backed-away from any changes.
