So, how would you solve the use case I described? What I need to do is to perform some checks before calling WikiPage::doEdit, and make sure the
result of
the check is still valid when the actual save occurs.
SAVEPOINTs are basically nested transactions. Can you describe the use case in more detail?

I can't see a clean way to do this without supporting nested transactions in *some* way.
