I don't see any way you could do that that wouldn't be extremely
bulky and distracting. And, frankly, it would be of interest to
something well under one percent of the release-note audience.
We as hackers are not the target audience.
I think the reason for including the commit pointers in the SGML
comments was already so that interested and knowledgeable people
could look up the associated commits if they wanted. I don't see
a need to do more than that.
