cakephp lacks sqlite3 support

I'm glad I didn't notice, until I was already several hours into learning CakePHP, that it doesn't support sqlite3 databases out of the box, or I might have given up and kept looking for another framework. And I think I like CakePHP, so I'm sticking with it, but I need to resolve this. I'm currently making a small site using MySQL, just to learn the framework, but when that's done, I'll be writing a site that need a database but needs to not require a separate database server program running, and I'm not about to write flat files when SQLite is so much better than that.

So, it's the end of 2010. Why doesn't CakePHP support sqlite3? Or maybe it does and it has managed to elude me?

Is anybody here using CakePHP with sqlite3? If so, how are you doing it, and have you encountered any sqlite3-specific problems that I would need to look out for?
