Yes, you can put this in as the bugzilla title, though I'd tighten it up a little.

This is 3 separate enhancements, each of which should be its own issue, and will 
certainly fit as the issue title.

Nothing has been deleted. In fact, I think those previous items in the 2.060 
New/Changed Features are seriously deficient because they contain no hyperlinks 
for more information.

But, as I mentioned to Leandro, if someone wants to add some additional notes to 
the changelog file, that's great. But somebody has to do the work, and in the 
past there generally hasn't been much effort expended there.

Me, I've spent more time than I care to think about keeping that list manually 
updated, badly.
