Not sure if removal of a feature is a feature, but this seems better
placed under "New features" than "Improvements" or "Bug fixes".

It definitely counts as an improvement for those of us working on
the codebase ;)

I think it would make sense to have a "Removed features" section
in between "New features" and "Improvements", at least for this
release: the old Xen driver is not the only chunk of legacy code
being dropped...
