Clicking the row containing the Amend comment checkbox fills in the box which overwrites the text for the commit message. Unchecking it clears the text so if you miss the commit button you lose everything you've typed. As a personal preference I'd prefer the checkbox be the only clickable element on the row but otherwise it would be nice if clearing the checkbox returned the previously typed information to the boxes. Maybe my aim is bad or I'm just idlely clicking while proofreading my message but I've cleared everything far more often than I'd care to admit :)
