I think that the second issue would not constitute a regression for this proposed upload; that bug exists already in Xenial. It also doesn't happen if the Trusty user has mysql-server installed (since that will cause mysql-server-5.6 to be removed in favour of mysql-server-5.7 in Xenial). After discussion with Lars, we therefore think that it'll disappear as soon as we delete src:mysql-5.6 from Xenial and process NBS, since it is only triggered by mysql-server-5.6.postinst in Xenial. Or we could try fixing it in Xenial by uploading a new src:mysql-5.6, but I think that would be a waste of effort since that will be deleted anyway.
As this bug already exists and we therefore can't regress it by uploading our new src:mysql-5.7, I presume this should be fine from an FFe point of view?
So in that case, I think we're ready to upload now. Release Team: please could you re-ack the FFe?
Thank you for the detailed testing on this, Lars!
