What makes a ... database application multi-user?

In the common usage of phrase, I would say that a
"multi-user database application", must have the
ability to allow multiple instances of the application
to write and access the data in such a way that
each will see a complete, if dated, view of data and
not see data from partially completed transaction
being made by another instances.

In other words if two instances of the application
are selling the last seat on the airplane, one must
be allowed to fail and be backed out -- gracefully.
