Yes, I do appreciate seeing these non-upstreamable ones, as they serve to illustrate issues that may want to be helped with a bit more customizability in our tree. I suspect some of them may already have enough solution on our side without any need for further patching (e.g. the "version" one Dscho mentioned for the 06/13), though. BTW, I'll be mostly offline today, so I'll return to the discussion tomorrow.
