In the earlier article about upcoming features, “Roadmap”, there was no mention of materialized views. The explanation is simple: they’re not on the roadmap. Yet.

However, this is one of the things that might change. There is a strong desire for materialized views, and one of MySQL’s architects has a strong interest (he wrote his PhD thesis on the topic). So if their absence from the “Roadmap” article troubled you, despair not. Keep watching this space and maybe there will be further news someday.
