+install-defaults
+----------------
+
+* The ``TARGETS`` variant of the :command:`install` command learned how to
+ install to an appropriate default directory for a given target type, based
+ on variables from the :module:`GNUInstallDirs` module and built-in defaults,
+ in lieu of a ``DESTINATION`` argument.
+* The ``FILES`` and ``DIRECTORY`` variants of the :command:`install` command
+ learned a new set of parameters for installing files as a file type, setting
+ the destination based on the appropriate variables from
+ :module:`GNUInstallDirs` and built-in defaults, in lieu of a ``DESTINATION``
+ argument.
