The release announcement comes from commit messages, so write a good one! You could even say “This needs to be mentioned in the release announcement” followed by the text you want in the announcement. Since this commit is already pushed, make some trivial change to a comment and write a commit note about the lost option on it, using the same subject line as your first commit.
