Could you please add a special header or something to such emails so I
can filter them out? I am strongly opposed to such automatic spambot
patch generation, as it wastes valuable reviewer bandwidth to save the
bot operator some time, but it think it should be the other way
around.

We expect contributors to carefully prepare their patch submissions
before sending them to the list, and automatically generated patches
simply don't mesh with that. The fact that you use a bot does not mean
you can ignore these rules.
