 OPTIONS docs])

 > Perhaps I'm missing something but I do not see how this is possible in
 the current settings. The connection setup logic must execute `SET ROLE
 <role>` against a cursor to set the role. It's not a client option that
 can just be passed through as far as I'm aware.

 It's possible to set e.g. `search_path` via `DATABASE["OPTIONS"]`:
 {{{
 DATABASES = {
     "default": {
         "ENGINE": "django.db.backends.postgresql",
         "OPTIONS": {
             "options": "-c search_path=custom_path",
         },
     },
 }}}
 Is it not possible to set `ROLE` in the same way?
 {{{
 DATABASES = {
     "default": {
         "ENGINE": "django.db.backends.postgresql",
         "OPTIONS": {
             "options": "-c role=custom_role",
         },
     },
 }}}
