Final addition. Let's add a section here for Exposing the MongoClient. The language is in case someone wants to execute a query completely absent of the Django framework. The way to do that is like this:
from django.db import connections
client = connections["<DATABASES_KEY>"].database.clientThis gives the underlying MongoClient Django references when making queries. With this exposed, users have access to MongoDB's full library of functions such as command(), find(), create_index(), create_search_index() and much, much more!

This seems like useful information but I think it's outside the scope of this page - since I orient everything around the raw_aggregate() method, using aggregation pipelines, and I introduce the page that way, I would have to spend some time reworking. Do you think this is necessary for public preview or can I ticket it out for later?

I'd say we should still push to add this information in somewhere, but it doesn't need to be in raw queries. I figured it would be best for the raw querying section. It doesn't have to be here, but we can discuss if there's another ongoing/yet-to-be-made section where it's sensible to push.

As well, add here that you can retrieve the MongoClient object by following the information (I've supplied just now in another comment) and then follow these instructions.
