FoundationDB does interactive transactions.

Last I checked, the entire transaction is built in memory (and famously has a five-second time limit), so while you can make multiple round trips, it's not quite as useful as with other databases.
The 5s timeout is annoying sometimes, but it does really support interactive transactions in the exact same sense that PostGres and MySQL do.
