Actually, it is supposed to. There is some bug that causes it to choke often though. I poke zere on IRC about it regularly. And a HUGE +1 to this topic in general. I find all the worldwide edits with no useful comment to be highly annoying. I agree that sometimes it will be a pretty general description if a lot of things were changed but generally if you are doing large XAPI requests to fix things, they will be pretty specific. There should be at least SOME attempt to be descriptive. If for no other reason than to alert me to the types of things that bots are correcting so that I can map them correctly when I add similar features in the future. I like to think my comments are usually pretty awesome myself :) http://www.openstreetmap.org/user/ToeBee/edits And yes, I do have one comment that reads "Random additions/improvements around town." for an edit that was truly random.
