A transaction can export a snapshot with pg_export_snapshot(), and then others can import it with SET TRANSACTION SNAPSHOT. The data does not leave the server so there are not security issues. A snapshot can only be imported while the exporting transaction is still running, and there are some other restrictions. I'm not totally convinced that we've covered all the bases for SSI (true serializable) mode, but it works fine for lesser isolation modes.

src/backend/parser/README Parser ====== This directory does more than tokenize and parse SQL queries. It also creates Query structures for the various complex queries that are passed to the optimizer and then executor. parser.c things start here scan.l break query into tokens scansup.c handle escapes in input strings kwlookup.c turn keywords into specific tokens keywords.c table of standard keywords (passed to kwlookup.c) gram.y parse the tokens and produce a "raw" parse tree analyze.c top level of parse analysis for optimizable queries parse_agg.c handle aggregates, like SUM(col1), AVG(col2), ... parse_clause.c handle clauses like WHERE, ORDER BY, GROUP BY, ... parse_coerce.c handle coercing expressions to different data types parse_collate.c assign collation information in completed expressions parse_cte.c handle Common Table Expressions (WITH clauses) parse_expr.c handle expressions like col, col + 3, x = 3 or x = 4 parse_func.c handle functions, table.column and column identifiers parse_node.c create nodes for various structures parse_oper.c handle operators in expressions parse_param.c handle Params (for the cases used in the core backend) parse_relation.c support routines for tables and column handling parse_target.c handle the result list of the query parse_type.c support routines for data type handling parse_utilcmd.c parse analysis for utility commands (done at execution time)
