Its all well saying Django supports Python 3, but when you reply on a dependency, such as MySQL connector (which I assume a LOT of Django users will want to use), then Django effectively doesn't work with Python 3.

I just stumbled on PyMySQL[0], who supports Python 3. Is there any issue with using this library, since it seems an obvious solution to this problem?

Fair enough, but it wasn't available a couple of months back when I was trying out MySQL and Python 3. There were a few hacky solutions available.

No, there isn't.

CyMySQL and oursql are also viable options.
