Perhaps we shouldn't actually try to change the changelogs, and
instead change how they're presented to the user. If what the user
actually reads could be written (and translated!) while the update is
still in -proposed, without requiring an entire new package upload
just to fix, then making human-readable changelogs could easily work
in the process.
Thanks,
