I think a slight bend would perturb me chiefly because of potential for reduced grip on the frame dropouts. i.e. Because of the angle created between QR plate and dropout face.
But this might be totally fine. Just test it. If you can't wriggle, wrench or mallet the (inflated!) wheel out of the frame then I would trust it.

Can bent QRs be trusted? Not massively so, I can still pull it through the axle.
