In light of:

The following mask changes are necessary to proceed:
 (see "package.unmask" in the portage(5) man page for more details)
# required by =dev-perl/DBD-mysql-4.42.0 (argument)
# /bound/portage/profiles/package.mask:
# Kent Fredric <kentnl@gentoo.org> (21 Jul 2017)
# Masked due to serious regression that introduces widespread data
# corruption when storing data in blobs. Masked, because any code
# that is written to use this version is now dependent on this version
# and older versions will corrupt your code instead.
# However, any existing packages should not use this version.
# See: https://github.com/perl5-dbi/DBD-mysql/issues/117
=dev-perl/DBD-mysql-4.42.0

Should I proceed with keywording or better wait for next release and abandon this KEYWORDREQ?

Given the dependencies were migrated to bug #614960 , but once that bug is done, this one effectively becomes a no-op ( Because the direct keywording of this package was never an issue, only the new deps )

So yeah. Don't worry about DBD-mysql. It will get keywords-persisted next time upstream does a version bump, assuming bug #614960 is done.
