Also, Greg, you argued for txn keys to be base36 when you were here in
Chicago last. Well, not "argued", because we all agreed with you, but
you were in fact the person who emphasized it first.

The reason was that more txns get created than stay around
permanently. We use them for updates, also failed commits (perhaps
due to conflict) happen. A busy repository will eventually make it
into high numbers. Running out of integers is a danger, and anyway
the numbers will start getting long sooner rather than later.
