Since each db has a different backend implementation under the ORM, sometimes queries aren't translated in quite the same way. There's always http://www.postgresqlformac.com/ though, so you can use that for dev if you do run into any issues.

For instance, I love Django (it really goes make web development "stupidly" fast), but I prefer Mako templates over the default as they put the full power of python in your view layer. It easy to miss this when the framework is presented as such an integrated package.
