To be honest, I don't see why we need to REQUIRE patch descriptions to begin
with. And especially not more verbose ones than what we have now. A link to
the upstream bug can be enough if the upstream bug contains the needed
information (what the problem is, and what upstream release the fix will be
included in). KDE bug reports usually contain this information, and also the
author of the patch (which shouldn't be a required information though, it's
enough to know that it comes from upstream) and a link to the upstream
commit.
