Since the locking relies upon the database engine itself, Django
probably can't do anything for it -- it would require the front-end to
know about features of the engine, and that could be a significant
impact if one changes the engine later (not to mention the overhead of
looking up some feature list for each engine so it can execute different
code based on what type of locking is available).
