So I don't mind patches per se, and when there's a reason for them I
have no problem at all taking them.

The reason is typically something like "let's short-circuit the normal
channels just to get this trivial thing sorted out and we can forget
about it", but it can also be just a practical thing like "I'm
traveling so it would be easier if you'd just pick up this patch
directly from the mailing list".

Or it could be "I don't have a git tree since I'm not a main
developer, so I just send patches".

All of those are situations where I'll happily take patches directly.

But on the whole, when there isn't any real reason to avoid a pull
request, I'd much rather have the full thing with signature and
everything...
