Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make
Ubuntu better.

We aim for no user-visible changes in updates to the stable release, and
Oracle aim for this in their updates too, consulting with us about
proposed changes that may change user behaviour first. In this case, it
looks like it wasn't predicted that this change was anything more than a
bug fix. Ideally we would have considered and looked into mitigating
this change before landing this update.

However, now that it has landed, I'm not sure that doing anything
further about this is warranted. I believe that a "CREATE TABLE" would
have failed with what you're trying anyway, so I think the upstream bug
was valid in that it was silently accepting something that should have
failed, and now it does.

So I'll mark this bug Won't Fix. If you disagree, further discussion on
what we should do instead is welcome - I'll stay subscribed.

** Changed in: mysql-5.7 (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Won't Fix
