Yeah. We're planning on patching MySQL to turn that into a warning
instead of an error. Upstream may be willing to do that for future 5.7
releases for us as well. Since the alternative is to adjust
dbconfig-common, and I'm told that is pretty invasive.

I'm not sure what this means in terms of blocking other things. I think
it'd be acceptable to allow other packages through proposed despite a
MySQL dep8 test failure. We'll hold MySQL until its own dep8 failures
are fixed.
