A much wanted and needed feature.
I'm not attempting to disparage the hard work of those who contributed
to this feature but it is not immediately apparent to me how this
feature should be used. Perhaps one of those people who needed this
feature could give a brief description of why it is useful and when it
would be appropriate to use this method rather than sending a PM?
Similar to what Andy says, there's nothing wrong with this, but I'm
failing to understand the benefits over existing PMs:

This example just mentions "a" cafe in a changeset that could be full of
cafe amendments. For it to be clear which one is under discussion a
hyperlink to the node/way still needs to be given which can just as
easily be supplied in a PM.
As this still a direct message between two users, to truly make it
'public' how does a third party become aware of the messages? Can I get
a notification if it falls within 'my area'?
