So in this case, even though the change affects so many packages, it
falls into the "self contained change" category.

That said, the difference between "system-wide" and "self-contained"
boils down to two things: some additional data required in the change
page, and filing the change a bit earlier. In this case the additional
data is mostly there in the change page, and the change was filed early,
so even if we were to change the Change to "system-wide", the effect
would be cosmetic.
