This still happens in Django 1.7+, just in a different way. Here's the relevant code from django/core/cache/__init__.py:

def close_caches(**kwargs):
    # Some caches -- python-memcached in particular -- need to do a cleanup at the
    # end of a request cycle. If not implemented in a particular backend
    # cache.close is a no-op
    for cache in caches.all():
        cache.close()
signals.request_finished.connect(close_caches)


So that becomes more tricky... Kinda thinking we might need to disconnect that handler and then connect our own that skips this backend (maybe by storing a flag on the forwarder saying "Ignore the close!", and set before close_caches(), unset after).
