Probably the Spring Boot team is already keeping track of this internally, but org.springframework:spring-r2dbc was introduced in Framework 5.3.9. I can't find any references to it in the Boot dependency management though, and #27163 did not contain anything.
Are there any plans to add it to 2.5.x or will it have to wait until 2.6.x due to the number of breaking changes?
Thanks!

Nevermind, I see it's being pulled in transitively through Spring Data R2DBC...

Just to avoid any confusion, org.springframework:spring-r2dbc was introduced in Spring Framework 5.3.0. Its version is managed by spring-framework-bom which Spring Boot's dependency management imports. As a result, we've had dependency management for it in Boot since 2.4 where we upgraded to Spring Framework 5.3.
