Honestly, I find it hard to decide what is a key feature and what is an improvement. I'd prefer to keep it to "enhancements" (listing them from most significant to least significant) and "bug fixes" (if we want to go there).

When possible, I'd try pointing to issues instead of pull requests in all cases - it preserves the discussion history and +1s. Issues are linked to the PRs for anyone that cares about implementation.

In terms of wording, I'd stay away from the word "now" - just describe what the improvement is:
Issue 2855: Configure Kibana server log levels.
Issue 4204: Plugin manager for Kibana server.
Issue 4218: Interface to switch between plugins in Kibana UI.
Issue 3270: Server status page
Issue 2245: You can now customize the descriptions shown in the visualization.
Issue 2906: Option to switch dashboards to the dark theme.
Issue 1902: Tile maps support configurable WMS-compliant map servers.

I'd also add a couple of others:
Issue #2245: Customize legends for the Filter aggregation.
PR #4894: Add advanced Settings option to map values to colors.
Issue #2874: Add advanced Settings option to change default timepicker value.
Issue #2760: Add ability to filter by clicking on a legend.
Issue #485: Add color rationalization between charts.

For bug fixes, here are a few that stick out for me that are sufficiently user facing:
