Doesn't the assumption that "your hardware works well" contradict the
purpose of the transactional code?  My system, for one, is very stable, so I
would only expect the transactional code to be useful if, say, my RAM or
harddrive were to go bad.  Or is the assumption only in respect to lying
about I/O completion?  Is there a way to detect this with an install test?
