Transactions for C# objects?

Question

Just curious, is there any support for transactions on plain C# objects? Like

using (var transaction = new ObjectTransaction(obj))
{
  try
  {
    obj.Prop1

Juval Lowy has written about this. Here is a link to his original MSDN article (I first heard about the idea in his excellent WCF book). Here's a code example from MSDN, which looks like what you want to achieve:

public class MyClass
{
   Transactional m_Number = new Transactional(3);


public void MyMethod()
   {
      Transactional city = new Transactional("New York");

      using(TransactionScope scope = new TransactionScope())
      {
         city.Value = "London";
         m_Number.Value = 4;
         m_Number.Value++;
         Debug.Assert(m_Number.Value == 5);

         //No call to scope.Complete(), transaction will abort
      }
}
