Yes, this has been added in cvs, but I've yet to produce a new development
release.  Due to some other driver events I'll put out a new dev release
on the official website in the next few days.

See this message for an explanation:

I believe the spec suggested deferring the changing of isolation levels
until the next transaction begins, but we decided that could mask serious
coding errors because the isolation level wasn't actually changing at the
time of the call.  Revisiting this is an option, but it still seems like a
bad idea to me.
