I guess so - that would let people see what changed immediately rather
than having me send it later on. What do others think?

I don't know how useful the heres-what-changed reply is for people.
I've seen little sign of anyone using it.

One reason I prepare it is for the author to scan it to double-check
that they meant to do all those things. The exercise also make me pay
more attention, check that diff matches the v4->v5 changelog's claims.
