			// a) succeed if the request had not been evaluated the first time.
			// b) succeed if the request also succeeded the first time, but is
			//    idempotent (i.e. it is internal to a txn, without a commit in the
			//    batch).
			// c) fail if it succeeded the first time and the request is not
			//    idempotent. In the case of EndTxn requests, this is ensured by the
			//    tombstone keys in the timestamp cache. The retry failing does not
			//    prove that the request did not succeed the first time around, so we

			// Case c) is not great - we'll end up returning an error even though the
			// request might have succeeded (an AmbiguousResultError if withCommit is
			// set).
			//
			// TODO(andrei): Case c) is broken for non-transactional requests: nothing
