For Change description, it's great, everything is available in one place etc. Using Wiki for process is bad idea, trust me, but currently the only way. At least tracking was moved to BZ, submissions are still tracked using categories (and guess what one typo means for your Change). For Change description - the documentation of Change, I'd like to use Wiki and I think it's really valid use case, not for process...
