/**
 * \class TransactionalStore TransactionalStore.h <dataquay/TransactionalStore.h>
 *
 * TransactionalStore is an RDF data store implementing the Store
 * interface, providing transaction support as a wrapper around a
 * non-transactional store such as a BasicStore.
 *
 * Write access to the store is permitted only in the context of a
 * transaction.  If you call a modifying function directly on
 * TransactionalStore, the store will either throw RDFException (if
 * set to NoAutoTransaction) or create a single-use Transaction object
 * for the duration of that modification (if set to AutoTransaction).
 * Note that the latter behaviour will deadlock if a transaction is in
 * progress already.
 *
 * Read access may be carried out through a Transaction, in which case
 * the read state will reflect the changes made so far in that
 * transaction, or directly on the TransactionalStore, in which case
 * the read will be isolated from any pending transaction.
 *
 * Call startTransaction to obtain a new Transaction object and start
 * its transaction; use the Transaction's Store interface for all
 * accesses associated with that transaction; call commit on the
 * Transaction object once done, to finish the transaction, and then
 * delete the object; or call Transaction::rollback() if you decide
 * you do not wish to commit it.
 *
 * TransactionalStore is thread-safe.
 *
 *!!! ... but the individual Transactions that you get from it are _not_ thread-safe -- document this (it's probably acceptable) or fix it
