Agreed.
It'd be nice if debbugs could understand "[ Debian Developer ]" lines
and give credit to the appropriate individuals when closing bugs
mentioned in changelogs. But I understand that's not entirely trivial to
do, and I don't consider that to be enough of a reason to keep around
hard to attribute changelog entries.
