When I contribute code, the cover letter helps me to do the Right
Thing.. Taking the time to write a proper cover letter helps to do a
"mental exercise" that

1. The changes make sense in the first place.
2. Only the necessary is done, not more or less.

Even for a small patch set the time used to write the cover letter
will pay off because it helps the maitainer to make a fair and
educated decision.
