Comment:

 I don't have much MySQL expertise so I'm afraid I can't advise much here
 but I don't think Django needs to support the use case of per table
 transaction handling. If someone has such a need, perhaps that could be
 accomplished by routing to different database aliases.

 As a workaround until a solution lands in Django, you could create your
 own MySQL backend that sets `support_transaction` as you like. Unless a
 discussion on the DevelopersMailingList reaches a different consensus, I
 don't think adding something in `OPTIONS` makes sense given that this
 doesn't seem to be much of an issue as far as tell. I haven't seen anyone
 else hit this problem since the current technique was introduced in Django
 1.1 (344f16e2205a4959ba65d975716a38db77d2061e).
