MariaDB GIS Multipoint field not saving

[PVHills]

Hi There,
We're using NetTopologySuite with Devart.Data.MySql.Entity.EfCore.NetTopologySuite 8.19.1905 and against MariaDB 10.3.32. I've discovered that we can load multipoint types into a NetTopologySuite.Geometries.MultiPoint property, but when saving the record, the field is set to NULL.

I've tracked this down to a problem in the NetTopologySuite WKTWriter class, which writes text for multipoints with the MULTIPOINT((1 2),(3 4)) format. The insert query that is emitted uses the ST_GEOMFROMTEXT function, which on this version of mariadb does not appear to allow the inner set of brackets to be used, and requires the format MULTIPOINT(1 2, 3 4) instead. Is there a way that we can override or fix the formatting for this field type? For example by supplying our own implementation of WKTWriter somehow?

With limited knowledge about the problem I'm considering a few workarounds including forking NetTopologySuite or writing a raw entity command for the insert, but would prefer something less hacky
