One of my points in the other discussion what that writing proper 
changeset comments also means showing respect to the rest of the 
community. Showing respect, interacting with humans, is something that 
no piece of software can do for you.

You have spent a lot of time preparing and executing this change, but 
even so you were unable or unwilling to even spend a minute to think of 
a suitable changeset comment. The very least thing to say would be "yes, 
sorry, I've made a mistake". Also, you have completely ignored the 
widely accepted community rules for making automated changes - were they 
unknown to you, or did you somehow think they would not apply to your plan?

Bye
Frederik
