Why are the patch name and the short description independent
variables? Wouldn't it make more sense to treat these as a single
unified item? If I rename the patch it would automatically edit the
first line of the description, etc...
When importing a patch from a saved email, stg should strip all the
email headers out of the description. I have to manually fix that up.
