Comment:
This is a known limitation, documented in the third note here:
https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/databases/#id8
Now there's hope with a new fork of MySQLdb that we plan to promote
(#23446), https://pypi.python.org/pypi/mysqlclient/
If you make positive experiments with that driver, might be nice to
comment on that ticket.
