Don't you think the officially supported Rails modules should work with all the RDMS engines that Rails supports? What would a MySQL based Rails app use if the official supported module didn't support it?

I think the suggestion is that one can have rdbms-specific optimizations while still keeping a standards-compliant base implementation.
Both MySQL and Postgresql could get their own optimizations.
Oh, weird, they won't even allow functionally equivalent optimizations? That seems silly.
I was responding to Rails not officially supporting good_job, though, which appears to be a Postgres-only tool.
