I didn't object to implementing row level locking. I said that if your basic algorithm without row level locks is viewn as being broken, it won't be fixed by implementing row level locking. What I meant here is just that we shouldn't implement a mode with less waiting for now even if there might be usecases because that will open another can of worms.
