Yep, I think the link, when available, is very useful. What I try
is to pick up a few most important changes directly affecting 
Fedora and then I link full Changelog.

So maybe idea - what about a dedicated field in Bodhi for upstream's
Changelog and then present it for users in PackageKit in a some nicer
way - real, clickable link... Not sure it will be possible in our
Packaging GUIs and also we try to hide updates as much as possible
from our users...
