If there were markers that would cause tools to hide some information 
under a +, that would be great.  Sometimes I have simplified a script 
beyond what would really be reusable just to not create an over-large 
changelog.  I hope that the simplified version is at least understandable, 
so that the reader can get an idea of what considerations went into the 
change, but I recall in one case having messed up on that as well, and 
ended up with something that really gave no information whatsoever.
