I had that in mind, but since the author'ing info is in the ChangeLog
file, I don't see any advantage of having to maintain it in the revision
log as well. But this is again an area where I think having multiple
options isn't going to hurt us, so I think we would be fine if some
prefer it this way, while others use the author-less version.
