They should be, though I haven't really tried it.  Sometime I have to
really try transactions out more thoroughly and document them better. 
What support there is for transactions is not database-specific.

No, you just found a bug related to having two ForeignKey('Place') --
SQLObject has a fixup stage where 'Place' gets replaced with the real
class, and funny stuff was happening when that got hit twice.  It's
fixed now in CVS.

Ah... I used __getattr__ without checking for special methods.  That
should be fixed in CVS now as well.  (Note pserver is a day behind
sometimes)
