 * (server) [#18478](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/pull/18478) Add command flag to disable colored logs.
 * (x/gov) [#18025](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/pull/18025) Improve `<appd> q gov proposer` by querying directly a proposal instead of tx events. It is an alias of `q gov proposal` as the proposer is a field of the proposal.

+* (cli) [#44](https://github.com/evmos/cosmos-sdk/pull/44) Convert `DefaultGasAdjustment` to `var` to allow customization of the value
