bug#13502: 24.3.50; bad formatting in recent NEWS?

The longest is this one (87 chars):
 
  machine smtp.whatever.foo port 25 key "~/.my_smtp_tls.key" cert
"~/.my_smtp_tls.cert"
 
There are also entries whose first line (a sentence) does not end in a
period.  And there are entries whose first line is not a sentence, and
is continued over subsequent lines.
 
All of these seem to contradict past NEWS formatting, but I don't know
where the rules for formatting NEWS are defined, so I cannot tell
whether they are strictly wrong or just unusual.  The last one certainly
works against the use of Outline mode to some extent.
