I still feel like it's way too much of a special case to try to do
this; the proposed option of an "anything goes" extra string argument
for throwing in a kitchen sink worth of table options feels ugly and
hackish, and any other solution would end up being nightmarishly
complex.

Again, I think it's out of scope to expect an ORM to support every
possible table option in every database.

The FAQ item Adrian linked provides a pretty clean way to handle this,
though; if you're going to distribute an application which relies
heavily on DB-specific options which are unsupported in the ORM, you
can drop the SQL to add them into a file, and anyone who installs the
application will get them -- Django automatiically executes that
"initial data" file when syncdb is installing things.
