Reject for Xenial is OK, the LTS will be out of support next year anyway.

I hope for galera-4 approval for Bionic.

The upstream maintenance policy (https://mariadb.org/about/#maintenance-policy) means that 10.3 (currently in Bionic) will be out of support in 2023 (same time as Bionic). However also Focal has 10.3 and Focal will be supported to 2025, beyond MariaDB 10.3 lifetime, so for Focal the MariaDB 10.5 backport might be relevant.

There is a possibility that I would backport MariaDB 10.5 to official Debian and Ubuntu backports if the process with backporting Galera 4 goes well and with reasonable amount of work, but I don't promise that yet.
