Can you please be more specific here for the in-patch changelog? The idea
is that people understand the changes with just this, as-is you need to
dig out the old review thread (which is pretty much impossible).

I'll add that to the commit message when merging, so no need to
resend. I'll merge as soon as Rodrigo has doublechecked the revised
patches.
