Well, sorry. One should not suppose somebody else having read Asterix
comics and be able to smile while looking at "#@§%£$!". Anyway, nice to
meet you!

It is just half of the fix. You can't assume that switching to
autocommit will do an implicit ROLLBACK for you. This worked until now
by chance (and because some drivers share the same logic and even some
code) but will break with new drivers or when old drivers decide to
"fix" the switch as we did for psycopg. So, IMHO, the best thing is to
always call .rollback() before switching transaction level.
