Looks good, except for some minor format problems in the commit message
(refer to etc/CONTRIBUTE "** Commit messages", and
https://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/html_node/Style-of-Change-Logs.html).

The lines in a changelog entry should be not indented (i.e., they should
in the same column as the "*").

The explanatory part of the message should go before the changelog
entry, not after.

Sentences should end with a double space (set
`sentence-end-double-space' to t).
