[OSM-dev] generator and version attributes on <changeset> element

When creating a changeset, many editors (I think both iD and JOSM do it)
add the attributes `generator` and `version` to the <changeset> element
(not to the <osm> element that wraps the changeset element, which is
documented).
e.g. from iD:
1. <osm>
2. <changeset version="0.6" generator="iD">
3. <tag k="created_by" v="iD 1.9.6"/>
4. <tag k="imagery_used" v="Bing"/>
5. <tag k="locale" v="es"/>
6. <tag k="comment" v="diamontare"/>
7. </changeset>
8. </osm>
I cannot see any documentation of this on the wiki. How is this information
used, and can it be accessed anywhere?
I ask because I am working on the osm-p2p-server and trying to ensure that
it matches the OSM API 0.6 as closely as possible.
