Going through the issues, I guess this is already fixed in master with

https://github.com/getpatchwork/patchwork/commit/e27ff061dc01e51967a978884a5c59152863ab9c

and queued for the next 2.1 release (or not? the stable/2.1 branch
also contains a version bump to 2.2 ... )

I have still no idea who runs the patchwork instance at
patchwork.kernel.org though.
