I've noticed that too but you can just install them by name:

$ cd $(port dir qt4-mac-mysql55-plugin)
$ for mysql in mysql5 mysql51 mysql55 mariadb percona ; do sudo port -dy uninstall qt4-mac-${mysql}-plugin 2>/dev/null ; done

You can also use the "subportof:" pseudoport:

$ sudo port -dy uninstall subportof:qt4-mac-mysql55-plugin

But that doesn't get the main port, which in this case you probably want, so you'd need to list it too:

$ sudo port -dy uninstall {subportof:,}qt4-mac-mysql55-plugin
