Comment:

 Thanks for this ticket, however I don't see much burnout in installing
 database clients if users want to use database in a shell. It's also not
 something that needs to be shipped by Django itself. It sounds like a
 third-party package is the best way to proceed so that people can try it
 out and then approaching the DevelopersMailingList to reach a wider
 audience and see what other think.

 > which can easily be adapted and made generic for all database engines.

 I don't think it is, but you may prove that I'm wrong. The devil is in the
 details.

 > Doing this has a side benefit of also giving support for a dbshell for
 in-memory SQLite connections, which are currently misleading through
 dbshell, as it doesn't reuse the same connection that Django does, meaning
 any database bootstrapping done during startup (best-practice aside) is
 lost. An in-process connection reuses the same connnection, and thus
 allows access to that in-memory database.

 I'm not sure how would you like to achieve this, `dbshell` is a management
 command. How would you like to share the same in-memory database as e.g.
 `runserver`?
