I was wondering what the new monitor functionality in IB7 was for.
That is a better solution.  Also, being able to see what is going on
in the transaction would be good too, this is just to make sure not to
kill a transaction that is part of a "known" long running
process(i.e. year-end processing/reporting).  Unless it would be
possible to flag a transaction as one that can take time to complete,
compared to others.
