      1. What would you like to communicate to the user about this feature?
      2. Would you like the user to see examples of the syntax and/or executable code and its output?
      3. Which versions of the driver/connector does this apply to?

      How are you using Mongo? What version of the server and driver are you using?

      I work on the Node driver, and I test and work with all supported server and driver versions

      This feature is client-side only, probably not something we'd backport so only relevant to 6.x drivers.

      What is the feature/improvement you would like?

      Add an alternative `withTransaction` API that wouldn't require users to pass a session in to each operation.  Maybe something like this:

      client.withTransaction2(async (client: TransactionMongoClient) => {
  // client is a specialized client that stores the current session,
  // so each operation can obtain the session from the client/db/collection
  // instead of passing it explicitly into the API
  await client.db('foo').collection('bar').insertOne({});
});

      What use case would this feature/improvement enable?

      This would simplify our convenient transactions API for users.
