Review comment:
       How did you perform the mysql test? You should be able to reproduce the 
problem with my newly added test case in breeze. 
   
   I am open to better way to handle this as well, but I think whatever 
solution we end up with, we should aim for consistent behavior between db 
drivers.
   
   IMHO, i think it's not a bad idea to use `DagRunType.SCHEDULED.value` 
through out the code base. This leads to less magic/abstraction, which will 
make the code easier to follow and maintain. It will also reduce chances of us 
running into subtle bugs like this.
