Correcting factual mistakes or typos in the changelog seems to be
accepted practice and I can't really see the harm of doing so with the
line wrapping and such as long as all information is preserved...

It's good to know the option, but for minor changes that are likely to
either be kept or accepted upstream, I've found it easier to use the
original patch. I don't think you (Christoph) wanted to require it -
otherwise you wouldn't have uploaded the package - but for the casual
reader, it could be even clearer that this is a matter of preference and
consideration on a case by case basis.
Kind regards
