I meant can you clarify the difference between rollback() and rollback_only().

> marked_rollback_only or forced_to_abort seems to me a unseful information for the user.

That makes sense.  I think I recall a concept like this in
Boost.Persistent - this is for the case where the user marks a
transaction
as 'uncomittable' to make sure code elsewhere can only try to
rollback, and never commit.  (Correct?)  I can agree to support this.
