You almost can do this now - in most cases, copying the text from Mozilla gives a good patch. The only problem is that the HTML generation code seems to have a bug - it correctly escapes '<' as "<" and '>' as ">", but does not escape '&' as "&", and this occasionally leads to problems.
I see another missing feature - there does not seem to be a way to order the changesets by the order of merging them into the tree. E.g. when you look at the linux-2.4 changesets, you will now find XFS all over the place - even before 2.4.23, while it really has been merged after 2.4.23.
