Google App Engine multi-entity-group transactions testing

We're testing a new feature for the App Engine datastore: transactions on multiple entity groups. We are looking for early testers interested into trying this new feature and providing feeback to the engineering team. Feel free to signup below if interested.

I'm all for progress, but shouldn't you get transactions working correctly with one entity group first?

As far as I am aware, transactions can still end in a "this might have worked, or maybe not" state, requiring your actions to be idempotent, which is a mess and not close to being a decent solution.

Johan, Will Google be addressing the numerous questions being asked about the new pricing model that has been imposed?

Thanks,
Sri

Hi Joshua,

By enrolling into this program you have an unique chance to
communicate your feedbacks and concerns directly to the datastore
engineering team.

Hope you will take this opportunity.

How much time do I have? Because I think I, like everyone else, will be spending the next two weeks dealing with the bombshell you guys dropped yesterday.

I believe there is a gun to my head, although I haven't seen a response to that question yet.

The testing for this feature will likely go on until it is included in
an upcoming SDK release.
