Isn't there a way to use WAL files to do this?

Currently, you can roll back a transaction that is open (not
committed) using the ROLLBACK statement.  Once you COMMIT, you can't
"undo" a transaction (unless you wipe out the database and restore from
a backup, or manually reverse all the changes you made).
