This has been brought up many times. It will be implemented eventually.
The problem is we need to rip open the packages to get at the changelogs
and noone has implemented this yet. It's not difficult to do, but to keep
down the load on master, it would be best to implement this in conjunction
with dinstall and lintian when the packages are added to the distribution.
