   I should have pointed out something earlier here that makes this issue a 
little unusual.
   
   MariaDB is NOT a supported metadata database. 
[Officially](https://superset.apache.org/admin-docs/configuration/configuring-superset/#setting-up-a-production-metadata-database)
 we support Postgres and MySQL. 
   
   So, on one hand I want to simply close this with the ol' "not supported" 
rationale, and say "we're open to improvements"
   
   But, if things need to be restructured significantly to make MariaDB work, 
and support it, I'd also want docs added on that link, and testing to make it 
as comprehensively supported as possible, since we'd be taking it on as a 
maintenance burden, and would want a pattern for other DBs to follow.
   
   So, I guess... I'm feeing open to non-breaking improvements/fixes that 
support the base use case and _happen_ to make things better for MariaDB, but 
if the goal here is to make MariaDB stable/supported, that's a different 
discussion, and probably not a huge priority for maintainers in general.
