I was wondering if %(log:<name of a part>) was a better way to go.

%(log:title) and %(log:body) would be equivalents of traditional %s
and %b, and %(log:body) in turn would be a shorter way to write
%(log:description)%+(log:trailer), i.e. show the message body, and
if there is a trailer block, add it after adding a blank line.

Or something like that?
