Yes, that would be simpler. I was all set to point out why this
doesn't work, and then I noticed that the location of the
"transaction_active" attribute is not consistent in the original code.
The DbSession class places it on self, and then the example usage
places it on the connection object (which I had based my version on).
Since that seems to be a source of confusion, it demonstrates another
reason why factoring this out is a good thing.
