I understand that "git-rebase -i" is good for keeping local changes
up-to-date, but the real issue is managing the local patches so that
they can be enhanced to the point that they are ready for submission.

That includes such things as moving chunks between patches, editing
descriptions, joining patches together, sorting patches into groups by
their urgency and so on.  Keeping the patches up-to-date is just one
aspect.

Anyway, I'm going to give "git-rebase -i" a try.
