IIUC emacs-diffs should now be a superset of emacs-commit, so
emacs-commit should not be necessary.

It's OK if it's not accurate: that will hopefully prompt people to make
it more accurate.  But the main source of such info is in the header of
each Elisp file (look for ";; Author:" or ";; Maintainer: " in the
section between the first line and the ";;; Commentary").  Look at
lisp-mnt.el for some utility functions that can find that field for you.

Good.

Please do it unconditionally.  People should explicitly "opt out" rather
than explicitly "opt in".
