These lines are quite long for GitHub's code review screen. I think they are wrapping at 125 chars or so. Our standard 100 char line limit, or even something more conservative, like the 72 chars for standard email text wrapping, would make these easier to read and review.

Only the API addition contributed to the minor release version bump, because only that is covered by Semver. Mentioning the performance imnprovements isn't relevant here.

I really dislike the "all changes" list being included in the release notes. It is reminiscent of the old CHANGES file that was too long and spammy to be useful, and duplicates the issue tracker and the git log's role, which is where a user can go if they really are interested in all the changes.
The release notes should just be a summary of the most important, most relevant, stuff for transitioning to this new release.

I left all changes in until the release notes are finished but I marked that they should be removed.
