Couldn't the query be done after the checkout, to see whether theirs is the
only checkout? Or were you proposing that the checkout fail? Otherwise, it
seems as if a post-checkout query would do what you wish for the clients that
are interested, without making all clients pay the price.

Good point John. Do the checkout, see if you want to continue, and uncheckout if
not. Then we wouldn't need to add more control couples to checkout.
