I think this is a misunderstanding. There are different ways of adding 
the bug number when posting a patch:

Very BAD:
---------
Changelog: This fixes bug #4711

BAD:
----
Changelog: Change the handling of flags X Y Z because this fixes bug #4711

OK:
---
Changelog: Change a corner case in the handling of flags X Y Z (with tests).
            This resolve the issue from bug #4711.

The bug number is *only* additional information. It isn't the 
justification for a patch and definitely not the sole changelog.
