    This adds the release notes for everything we've done so far for 2.5.

    This is bug 800.

    daviddavid

    Maybe mention bug 193? (it's not actually closed, but this is part of it)

      I'm not sure this is 100% correct. If I open a field, make some changes, and by browser crashes, I lose those changes. Fields are just saveable individually rather than as a group (and any open fields will be saved when closing or publishing).

      1. This isn't that bug. This is a new feature Mike put in that lets you double-click anywhere on a line to leave a comment, instead of having to move your mouse over the line number and click.

      These are only for diff fragments in reviews, not the diffviewer, if you're talking about this and this, respectively. If this is what you are talking about, these can probably be left out because they are fixes for a feature that wasn't released before 2.5.
