Perhaps you can explain what is the functionality you want to achieve, as I, for one, don't understand. Do you want transactions? Or not?

Also - I have no idea what "peer authentication" has to do with Pg gem - care to elaborate? The gem is for client, and authentication happens in server, so ... ?

Sorry, you're missing the point. I'm trying not to alter the existing
behaviour of the Chef database cookbook which is used by countless
people to execute scripts big and small, with and without transactions.
If I just naively wrapped them all in BEGIN/COMMIT then it would
override any additional transactions within the scripts.
