I suppose that TransactionIdDidCommit() returns false pretty rarely, so one
iteration is sufficient in almost all cases. Besides that, I preferred simpler
code because it's easier to test (It's not trivial to have debugger reach the
conditions.) However it's just my preference - no real objections to your
approach.
