12033	ModelAdmin.search_fields throws exception when using @ for non mysql database	Harro	nobody	"So for the production environment I would really like to use the fulltext search capabilities the @ prefix offers, but for development we hardly use the search anyway. And most people will use sqlite anyway.

Django throwing an exception when using the @ option for a non mysql backend makes it impossible to keep your code the same.

I suggest when using @ for a non mysql backend django throws an error in the error log and the normal search is used.
