Comment (by sc0ttkclark):

 From David Timothy Strauss, a contributor / co-maintainer:

 I'm personally proud of the transaction support we've built.

 CiviCRM already uses an early incarnation of this work -- which became the
 basis for Drupal's -- but we (the Drupal community) have extended it into
 something really impressive. I think it's the most elegant transaction
 model available. In comparison, ADODB's "smart" transactions allow
 nesting, but they don't have the awesome savepoint nesting and scope-based
 COMMITs that Drupal's library has.

 That's at least one reason to consider this library.
