Requesting an FFe for this please. Lars has had a branch ready for a while now, and we've already had one review round, but I haven't managed to review again in time. I expect to get this uploaded in 1-3 weeks.
One complicating factor is that this will trigger a library transition for libmysqlclient, and I know this is undesirable after FF. In mitigation, upstream aren't expecting any API changes to cause breakage - the ABI bump was to clean up unused symbols that shouldn't be exported.
Upstream are working closely with us on this, and I am a DM for this package in Debian.
