In Greg's defense, I find patchwork to be fairly unwieldy (which is
why I don't use it).  It is certainly possible that I am missing some
key feature, but my limited experience with it suggested to me that all
the clicky-clicky stuff required to deal with the individual messages
queued in patchwork nearly doubled my time overhead associated with
merging patches.
