I'm not sure if this change warrants a NEWS entry. On the one hand,
it's just a bug fix, but on the other hand, it's an incompatible
change. On the third(?) hand, it was never documented, and I'm not
sure if anyone would have guessed that you can use, say, alphabetic
characters as string delimiters in predicates.

I think it warrants a NEWS entry -- some people may have used
undocumented values.

Ok, updated (only the first patch has any changes). Hopefully the wording is ok.

I've also moved a stray Eshell entry from the "Lisp Changes" section into the Eshell subsection of "Changes in Specialized Modes". It was more of a user-facing change, so it's probably best to put it there alongside all the other similar changes (I added a pointer to the manual section too).
