Please, please, consider adding release notes, at least for new features is not good enough to just use bugzilla links, you need a clear, succinct explanation of the feature. Where would you put it? In the bug report itself? Most of the time is not clear enough by the time the bug is created and the feature is polished after a long discussion. You shouldn't make users go through the entire history of a bug, which is completely internal to the compiler development, to know what have changed.
The titles of the bug reports can and should be edited after the fact. That will help a lot.
I'm not saying you're wrong. I'm saying that what you're asking for requires some significant effort from somebody. Nobody has put forth that effort in the past, resulting in the changelog being pretty crummy and woefully incomplete. At least now it is fairly complete.
If anyone wants to do a pull request on the changelog to add to it, that would be great.
