You have the right to ask these questions. I recommend that you
spend the energy to make your MySQL server more redundant, if you
care so much about email performance.

I just don't want to have connections hang when there could be a
temporary error which would close down these connections. I don't care
so much about mail performance more about (again, in my opinion)
better error handling.

And I had hoped that perhaps this would be an improvement to postfix.
Sadly it seems it was some kind of blasphemy to question the way
postfix does handle this stuff.

No, it means until now no one needs this so important to step up with code/patches to improve it. If you really need a reliable mailsystem you simply have to use reliable parts. If your mailsystem respond with 4xx or simply hang in case it is not able to move any mail is just a matter of taste.

But perhaps I'm only getting the wrong impression here.

Yes

Help is always welcome, simply demand how things could be better is useless.

Andreas
