I would not agree here. If some tables, even unbuffered, must be changed safely i.e. either all or nothing, then transaction looks very appropriate. I mean that we have some 'buffer', e.g. cursor(s) on local workstation that hold changes for these tables and we want to move these changes to real data (file-server).
