I don't really agree about the last point there. I don't feel that
MySQL is even the best Rails adapter right now. The PostgreSQL and
Oracle adapters are each better in a fair number of ways.
If you're not working from example SQL code that is MySQL-specific, or
from the sample gibberish that MySQL happens to call DDL (sorry,
couldn't resist), you shouldn't even notice which DBMS platform you're
on.

The more obscure adapters are almost certainly less fun to use,
though.. anything without a really nice Ruby library under the hood is
probably going to get in your way at some point.
