Which, functionally, is exactly as useful as the release notes to 99%
of your users- i.e., not at all. So no loss.

Now, when you can make the 'can't find server' page pop up network
manager and do the useful thing... *that* will be a win. Local content
in a web browser is dumb; we only put release notes there for
historical reasons.
