Subject: bug#50394: Improve "Completion List Mode" NEWS entry

Could we please make this NEWS entry easier to understand:

** Completion List Mode
New key bindings have been added: 'n' and 'p' to navigate completions,
and 'M-g M-c' to switch to the minibuffer, and you can also switch back
to the completion list buffer with 'M-g M-c'.

I suspect that most users have no idea what is "completion list mode",
as IIUC it is an implementation detail. They would be helped more if
this instead referred to "the default completion window" or somesuch
(assuming that's what this is about).
