Has there been any discussion regarding adding a time-limited version of NOWAIT, say: “WAITONLY 50” (milliseconds), when dealing the explicit LOCK TABLE or the SELECT…FOR(SHARE|UPDATE) commands?

is this a feature in any other major databases?

Yes, at least Informix has it in the form of SET LOCK MODE TO { NOT WAIT | WAIT [N] }.

is this in the sql spec?

No.



what do you expect to happen if these timeouts expire? return an error, and abort the transaction?
