Well, that's just it: bzr _should_ have such a mechanism.  I really
don't care if modifying a commit message would count as a new revision
of the tree, all I care is that "bzr log" and friends show the
modified commit message by default (if there would be a way to see the
original one before the fix, that's okay too).

There's no requirement to pretend the tree is the same after modifying
the commit message.  The requirement is that "bzr log" shows it with
the commit, that's all.
