Why are we changing to follow a spec we have never used before?  I have 
concerns about “security” as a type. Unless we are going to support multiple 
types this doesn’t make a lot of sense to me as generally these fixes will be 
bugs. And rather than have a type of “security” I would prefer that instead a 
new attribute named “cve” be added where we can add the CVE number when there 
is one.

I guess you have already converted 2000 changeling entries so I guess I am not 
going to push to have them be changed to match changes.xml (and I should have 
noticed that earlier). But I would like a follow-on release to enhance it wrt 
the security type.
