The structure doesn't persist in our output for upstream: unless I
misunderstood your whole point there about dismembering the patches.

Also if we take the hit of arranging things for upstream
per-incoming-patch, as the number of incoming patches increases the
maintainer suffering level increases linearly.  Whereas if we did it
prior to a push upstream, assuming that we were able to form a
methodology that would work, it would be much less sensitive to how many
ingredients went into the pudding, meaning we can scale.
