Before committing I always make an "hg di" to double-check, and then copy (part 
of) the Misc/NEWS entry (that usually happens to be conveniently placed at the 
end of the diff) in the commit message.

Automating the generation of Misc/NEWS would likely make whatever modification 
we might want to do to the content more difficult.
