New description:

 Changelog information is by nature ''tabular data'', so we should probably
 be displaying it as such instead of as an un-ordered list. This change
 also makes the structure more predictable and improves readability and
 focusability for screen reader and keyboard users.

 And it's looks nice too :-)

 Note for the attached patch: Ended up needing to use a `<caption>` tag for
 the table to ensure a11y compliance instead of adding an `id` attribute to
 the `<h3>` – it was messing with the ToC's ability to render the section
 correctly.
