   I'm suprised there is no existing solution for this.
   The feature seems useful, the problem is interesting,
   so there should be at least an attempt somewhere, even
   if the correct solution may be tricky.

The classic (old-school, sadly out of fashion these days
of ever-widening programmer/non-programmer divide -- in
communication, in mindset, in action[0]) solution is to
grep ChangeLog files.

[0] The buzzword in PTB circles nowadays is "inclusion",
    a deliciously ironic idea for PTB, but no big news for
    some bottom-{br,n,w,f}eeding curmudgeon hackers...
