That's not native support.  This is a M$ example of implementing
something that should be a _core_ part of the SQL server, not an
afterthought (oh, we forget transactions, well, just slap InnoDB on it).
 Hey folks, we're having turkey salad, but we forgot the turkey, so just
slap some chicken on it.

MySQL is just a file system you can access w/ SQL commands -- an ext2
filesystem at that.

SQL database == ACID compliant.  MySQL != ACID compliant.

Ciao,
