I consider this to be common sense, but it's not in the

right now - that changelog entries are immutable. To that end, I have
a really simple draft up here for revision of the guidelines to
explicitly state that.

I am against making this a steadfast requirement. This should be stated
as a strong recommendation.
I often want to make corrections to previous changelog entries. I
sometimes want to remove irrelevant changelog entries, usually only
cases like "Rebuild for rawhide libfoo-1.2.3" when I have that spec in
sync with previous Fedora/RHEL releases and that changelog entry is
irrelevant/incorrect for other distros.
