It isn't possible, because it was never on the feature set. I know of lots
of people who requested this capability for merge, but none that wanted it
for transactional. One of the main reasons is that you are using an
inherently disconnected synchronization mechanism which fits in with the way
merge is run in almost all implementations, but is not the way transactional
is run. If you need the fature added to the transactional engine, you would
have to make a feature request.
