I personally think bullet points are a bit easier to read for changelogs
compared to paragraphs since there is less filler text needed. For
example, my original merge message didn't the "there is also a fix for".
It just said "Fix unlocking of...".

Anyway, if you still prefer paragraphs then do let me know and I'll use
those next time around and save you some editing.
