Mark, did they rationalize the MYSQL_STRICT requirement? I did a
little reading up on that (as I'd never heard of it before this
thread) and it seems like an interesting decision to make, as it will
break most INSERT statements where an auto-incrementing field is in
play.

By most, I mean any that uses the old standard INSERT INTO table
VALUES ( value1, valuen ); syntax is used.

You get protection from zero-dates (no more 0000-00-00 00:00:00
values), but is there any other real practical value to running MySQL
in this mode?
