The reason I dropped my opposition to multi-file commits is that I realized that the info I used to get by looking at a CVS log, I could get from the ChangeLog file instead with a suitable selective visibility mode. I am therefore opposed to any changes which have the effect of downgrading Change Log files, or which presume they are downgraded.
