Could you not just change the output file name and have it do the mv for you?

I see.

It does not seem possible to include markup in the description attribute.

About the only "markup" one can use is the number of spaces at the
beginning of a line - these are preserved in the output (and in the
HTML, but of course additional spaces are not visible).

With a bit of Velocity code, I suppose this could be used as a crude
way of generating blank lines in the output.

Otherwise, one can at least format the description with the desired
line breaks and spacing in changes.xml, and copy-paste it into the
output release notes.
