I would qualify that as a missing feature.   The "timezone=True" flag is so far 
only implemented for Postgresql's TIMESTAMP type which features this option 
natively.    SQLite's type could support this flag as well so I've added ticket 
#1985.

For now you'd have to subclass sqlite.DATETIME and provide an alternate 
bind/result processor.
