RDS Aurora MySQL added new reserved words (update 3.06.0) and is not fully compatible with MySQL 8

Question

In the latest RDS Aurora MySQL update 3.06.0 was added new reserved words like "content_type" to support Amazon BedRock.

https://docs.aws.amazon.com/AmazonRDS/latest/AuroraMySQLReleaseNotes/AuroraMySQL.Updates.3060.html

Softwares like "Zabbix" dont work anymore in this current version. 
I think its not fully compatible with MySQL 8 anymore.

This new keywords should start with prefix like `rds_` so it wouldnt break running softwares.

Thanks

Hello,

Thank you for getting to us with this query.

I would like to mention that this is a new feature that was launched to support integration of Bedrock with Aurora MYSQL 3.06.0 version.

I have passed this feedback to the internal team to make use of different keywords if possible. Having said that, unfortunately as of now this would remain in use as reserved keywords until any further changes are introduced.
