Comment:

 We're human, we miss things sometimes, especially when working on the
 releases that just happened a few minutes ago.

 Also, sometimes we go with aggressive changes in betas to see what kind of
 real-world breakage is out there, so we can communicate, mitigate, and
 pull back if we need to. That MySQL strict mode requires values or
 defaults for write queries yet doesn't support defaults for all column
 types is, IMO, ridiculous, but at least we know now, and can go from here.
 Thanks for reporting back with the specific breakage, nerrad.
