java.util.Date regression

While updating a legacy system from 2.x into 3.x we noticed a regression in how java.util.Date objects get saved to our mariadb database.

The appears to have been introduced in the transition from 2.7 to 3.x

The issue is that the connector strips the timestamp from the object before saving to the database meaning:
2024-08-14T08:30:41.842-00:00
is saved as:
2024-08-14T00:00:00.000Z

This is not the case for equivalent org.joda.time.DateTime objects

It would appear that the implementation created in 3.0.5 assumes that java.util.Date objects just represent Dates. Whereas the documentation describes them as instants in time to millisecond precision.
https://docs.oracle.com/en/java/javase/17/docs/api/java.base/java/util/Date.html

Any help diagnosing and understanding this issue would be greatly appreciated.
