This was a year ago, so I did added the NEWS entry.  I grepped through
the manuals for eval-expression to see whether the previous behaviour
was mentioned there (and would therefore need changing), but I couldn't
find anything, so I didn't change anything.

So this is now pushed to Emacs 28, and I think it's a really good and
natural change.  Thanks, Charles.
