bug#74996: 28.2; sql interactive mode prints output of executed query where the pointer is instead of the bottom of the buffer

[José Júnior]

I think because the issue is where the output is printed on the buffer, so it 
would be something after the mysql package gives the output to Emacs.

As I understand, the mysql package only gives the output of the SQL query to 
Emacs, then Emacs should be in control to where to print it. And since it's 
taking into account where the pointer is to print the output, it seems to be 
the case.
