...I see for example the commit 49daed60510a073062b41fa39fd7c010cb0a315e
from Glenn has a nice summary of all the changes in subdirectories
gathered from various ChangeLogs, but `C-c C-a' in the commit window
doesn't bring in anything near that summary. Is there a way to
auto-generate it or do I have to assemble it by hand?

I created the top-level commit message by hand for now, in
scratch/bug19328/custom-prompt-customize-unsaved-options-rc2 and then
merged it, so the discussion about enabling this feature by default can
continue (I'm not marking the bug "done")...

Ted
