Adding new pages simultaneously results in IllegalTransactionStateException due to deadlocks when using SQL Server

When multiple users try to add new pages at the same time, Confluence will throw an exception as seen below. This was discovered during stress testing, but was quite easy to replicate, but may or may not be enountered that frequently in a live instance (depending on practices for adding pages simultaneously). Here are the steps used to reproduce the error.

1. Install Confluence 2.10.1 (likely happens on other versions as well, we tested on 2.10.1) against SQL Server 2005
2. Add the transaction isolation and content table index described in Known Issues for SQL Server
3. Multiple (we used 4. 3 or more should work) unique users each add a unique new page under the same node.
4. All users clicked "Save" at the same time.

All but one of the users get the following error page thrown by docreatepage.action:
