Firstly, I don't understand which issue your are trying to solve.

Secondly, I am opposed to that change, because besides the issues, 
others already mentioned ("mistakes" etc), we once had a discussion on 
this topic (IIRC, on @devel, several years ago), which had concluded 
into "maintainers are advised to trim changelogs/delete obsolete and 
irrelevant changelog entries" to keep changelogs readable.
