Comment:

 Did you consider writing a custom field? I don't think Django would ship
 an Oracle specific field or add some option to `CharField` that's Oracle
 specific. Do you have a proposal about how to offer this feature?

 Actually what you might want is a custom Oracle database backend that
 overrides the default

 DatabaseWrapper.data_types].
