DB::beginTransaction exception throwing

[DaneEveritt]

Throwing an exception within DB::beginTransaction will fail to register in the parent try/catch block. Basically, this code fails:

DB::beginTransaction();

// logic checking here
throw new DisplayException('Some Exception');

try {
    DB::commit();
} catch (\Exception $ex) {
    throw $ex;
}

This code works:

DB::beginTransaction();

try {
    // logic checking here
    throw new DisplayException('Some Exception');

    DB::commit();
} catch (\Exception $ex) {
    throw $ex;
}

There are probably a few places throughout the code that use the broken setup which makes it hard to debug errors since nothing is displayed, it just fails.
