For some reason I neglected to notice that there were multiple commands in
a single message. John L. already posted a solution that works for 1.9x; I
can't do something quite that naive for 2.0 because doing a full list
reconfiguration might take a huge number of commands.
I suppose a per-transaction limit should be imposed by the core and should
limit unapproved commands. I'll have to think about it some more.
