Oh my, I seem to have volunteered to take this.
I won't have the time to work on it for at least a week or two, so if
anyone with more time on their hands wants to step forward and take it,
feel free, otherwise I'll start on it shortly.
Communicating with upstream won't be a problem (Hi Bergie!), and I
expect to start using the software myself too.

mysql is supposedly going dfsg free soon, so midgard won't have to be in
contrib when that is fixed, but adding support for other databases is
still a good thing.
