That's correct, you can't.    And if used as you describe, it would be pointless. Post-commit fires after the transaction has been committed, so the commit that "isn't allowed" has already happened at this point.    If you need to communicate to users ni post-commit, it has to be done via RSS (assuming they're subscribed), email or some other asynchronous method.
