Being able to keep classify patches:
- - backports from upstream SCM
- - fixes for upstream, already forwarded (with integration to upstream
  bug-filing system if possible, or at least the bug report URL)
- - fixes for upstream, unsent (still being tested or cleaned-up)
- - Fedora-specific fixes, not to be forwarded
