It might be a good practice, because you never know, if your
application will eventually also be writing to the DB. I don't know if
it has an effect on read only operations.

Strictly speaking its no "commit", its a "registration for
commit/abort". And yes, for ZSQL methods this is done implicitly (via
the "query" method of the DB class).
