Description
Internal discussion within our company revealed that the common misunderstanding results from a slightly wrong name of the config parameter:  ATOMIC_REQUESTS 
We found that  ATOMIC_VIEWS  would be better.

Agreed that if the new middleware proposal works out, that'll be better in the long run. Here's the draft pull request.

That makes sense. However I'm not convinced the slight improvement in naming correctness is worth the backwards incompatibility.
There's a proposal for a new middleware schema floating around. Perhaps it will allow implementating a safe
TransactionMiddlewareagain. I'd rather wait for this to happen.I'm leaving the ticket open to get other opinions.
