I'd sign up to something that /made/ me leave an edit summary all the time... perhaps a configurable option for logged-in users as a corrollary?
If you're using the monobook skin, there's a little Javascript extension which checks the edit summary and prompts you if you leave it blank...it can even cope with the /* commented out section headers */.
I originally got it from [[User:ABCD/monobook.js]]: don't know if it's been updated recently: you can see my version in http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Phil_Boswell/monobook.js.
