Definitely. It's easier to add structured data there than in the commit
message though -- but we could also define a standard to add it to the
commit messages. Or some inbetween. But whichever way we do it, it's likely
going to lead to a non-trivial amount of work to maintain. So the big
question is, is the data we can get out of it worth it?
