It seems an entirely principle-free change in the function's definition.
I'm not actually clear on why Kevin wanted this change in
isolationtester's wait behavior anyway, so maybe some clarification
on that would be a good idea. But if we need it, I think probably
a dedicated function would be a good thing. We want the wait-checking
query to be as trivial as possible at the SQL level, so whatever
semantic oddities it needs to have should be pushed into C code.
