Not sure if this is needed as mariadb was never stable before. I would expect most people using it were updating as the ~arch versions progressed.

If dev-db/mysql is upgraded, they won't get mariadb unless they actively switch. While you can do some swap back initially, once you start using unique features, it is hard to swap. This will be even more true in 5.6/10.0 with GTID replication which is not compatible. (Must be enabled by the admin by hand, not automatic.)
