This point is interesting.  The release notes include in the sgml
sources references to the related commits.  Could it make sense to
have links to the main commits of a feature which can be clicked on
directly from the html docs or such?  I understand that producing the
notes is a daunting task already, and Bruce does an awesome job.  Just
wondering if we could make that automated in some way if that helps
with the user experience...  Anyway, this is unrelated to the topic of
this thread.  My apologies for the digression.
