I personally do updates via "yum update" so it useless for me, but I agree that people using GUIs to update can find that information useful though I am skeptical in general. I tried to find the changelogs for few of my packages and adding 1 fixed URL somewhere into the spec wouldn't be so hard. The other thing is how to automatically add bug numbers from spec changelog into bodhi - now it requires to have them one bug per line in '#<number>' format, no other text on that lines.
