In fact, it operates as the result of committing any transaction external
to the one in which datasets are watching it. Conceptually it's easier
perhaps to think of it as bringing forward the notification of DML changes
so that it occurs before your datasets' work is committed.

However, no transaction can see the uncommitted work of any other transaction.

As for stopping the visual effects of a procedure which is looping through
rows in the buffer, DisableControls is available, just as in any Delphi
project; however, IBO has also TIB_Datasource.DisableInterface.
