Mozilla has a "relnotes" keyword in their Bugzilla so developers can
mark fixes worth to mention, but obviously not every commit/merge has a
corresponding ticket in the bugtracker (especially in case of
functionality enhancements).
I don't know about the acceptance by developers though (how many are
aware of it and how many actually use that keyword).
