Hi,

The maintainer scripts currently do not do anything with the socket
activation based service. There is also no testing or CI in place to
validate.

Yes, I would accept a change that stops mariadb.socket together with
mariadb.service before unpacking and starts both again in postinst (only if
the socket was active before) assuming it is sufficiently well proven to
work and not cause new regressions.
