It is all documented in etc/NEWS, yes.  It's also documented in the manual and 
in doc strings.  I'm not a fan of installing undocumented code.

As for "set in stone", well, nothing in Emacs is set in stone. :-)

The changes did not become controversial until after they were installed in 
master.  They weren't installed in master until after being proposed and 
discussed.  Sometimes that happens.
