My current plan (with the financial rewrite) is to have a finalize
transaction function which checks the transaction's final state.  One big
issue is that since we don't (yet) have an easy way of passing in really
complex data into stored procedures, it makes more sense to pass it in line
by line.

Long run (probably not for 1.5 unfortunately) I would like to have types
that can serialize themselves and then just use that to create a native
representation.  That's a bit more work though and I don't think our
tooling is there.

If we are going to do it, why not just have that function be a stand-alone
function and have the code call it after post (if the setting key is set)?

That would provide an easy way to retrofit with the old code in case the
rewrite doesn't make it in.
