The event scheduler option can now be configured via flags: https://cloud.google.com/sql/docs/mysql-flags
Is event_scheduler unavoidably disabled in Google Cloud SQL?

Question
I am just now discovering that Google Cloud SQL may not allow MySQL's event_scheduler to be activated, as activating it is a (restricted) SUPER privilege.
Currently
"select @@GLOBAL.event_scheduler;"
returns:
@@GLOBAL.event_scheduler
OFF
and
"set global event_scheduler=ON;"
returns:
*Access denied; you need (at least one of) the SUPER privilege(s) for this operation*
This is really messing up a very scheduler-reliant production system I'm trying to migrate to the Cloud! Is the only work-around for this to implement Cron Jobs in GAE, or has anyone out there done anything clever with their SQL instance?
