I'm fine with dropping the [arguments] part, but IMHO the #: marker
should be there, as it marks the thing as a keyword argument (thus also
making arguments superfluous – it's implied).  That is, I'd also write
the phases example as #:phases.

But I haven't done a survey, so if you want to keep the ChangeLog as-
is, by all means do so.

Cheers
