[che-dev] 6.12.0 release notes - request for help

[Dave Neary <dneary@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi everyone,

I queried the list of kind/enhancement pull requests that were merged
for 6.12.0 - and I would really love to get a one- or two-line
description of how they enhance the user experience for the release
notes (which we are once more at risk of missing).

If you authored one of these, or can provide more detail about it, or if
you merged other changes which were not kind/enhancement but which you
feel deserve a mention in the release notes, please reply here with
notes. Ideally, today or tomorrow, so that we can get release notes
online next week.

FYI: Here is the query I used to generate this list:
https://github.com/eclipse/che/issues?q=label%3Akind%2Fenhancement+is%3Aclosed+milestone%3A6.12.0

Thank you!
Dave.
