Agreed.  I can create a patch today to implement this.  The thing
which jumps out first is that assign_transaction_read_only probably
needs to move to variable.c so that it can reference
FirstSnapshotSet as the transaction isolation code does.  The
alternative would be to include snapmgr.h in guc.c, which seems less
appealing.  Agreed?  Other ideas?
