I simply removed them for the following reasons:
- most of the time it did nothing (I mean for the different
implementations) or nothing consistant
- as this API is related to transactions, it's better to explicitely
start, commit or rollback a transaction on the connection
- it could not apply to all the possible data models (for example what
did it mean for the GdaDataModelHash?)
- as a replacement I've added a new gda_data_model_send_hint()
function (will be in CVS tonight), which the model can choose to treat
or ignore, to tell when a lot (batch) of changes are about to start
and about to end.

If you want a spanshot, I can send a copy of my current workspace.

Cheers,
