In particular, will Belvedere suggest adding a news entry or mandate one?

You seem to be suggesting adding a possibly incomplete entry with the
first patch. If that is so, it would be helpful if blurb could pull an
existing file for an issue into the editor.

If the news entry is proper, it should only be removed as part of
reverting the patch, but only if it is the last remaining PR for the issue.

I believe bpo numbers are part of the file *name*, not part of the news
entry. (The consolidator should do the formatting.) So the issue is
changing file names. Belvedere should flag mismatches between PR title
and news file names. Changing the number in the title, which is
sometimes necessary, will create a mismatch.
