%changelog would have to be stored separately. This would apply even for the case when no "external" changes were made — just normal updates by the package managers — since there's no way for pyp2rpm to know what happened in the past. Anyway, I think it's a good idea to try to make automatically generated spec files work, but making this mandatory sound premature. Even in the future, there's always be packages which need some manual fixup to whatever pyp2rpm produces.
