I didn't add one because I didn't see entries for the following 
commits which made similar changes elsewhere:

- f947b20a1926ffc5b0553297dfc26d8390bcb328

Grepping etc/NEWS files for "special-mode" doesn't turn up much 
either:

Let me know if you still think one is necessary and I'll add it in 
the next patch.
