Comment (by aaugustin):

 Our policy is not to mention changes to private APIs in the release notes.
 That's why they're called "private".

 We make exceptions when we have overwhelming evidence that an API is
 widely used even though it's private. I'm talking about stuff like
 `Model._meta` or `Form._errors`.

 `rel_name` is a fairly obscure API deep inside formsets with no clear
 purpose. I don't believe it crosses the threshold for a mention in the
 releases notes.

 -0 because I don't want to get down a path where we're eventually expected
 to document any change we do to any private API anywhere in Django.
