Dear Jesse,

you yourself do not accept patches beyond what you then, at that moment,
think are applicable use-cases of Fedora Project Release Engineering only
to work something up yourself two weeks later.

We've also seen upstream reject very reasonable patches -that were in the
upstream repo already, authored by @redhat.com of course- be cherry-picked
to another branch for whatever reason I've offered to help with (some QA
concerns for one).
