Sounds sensible.

A few administrative points for your patch:

  - we usually try to send patches inline, rather than as attachments.
    It almost looks like your mailer or a server on the path converted
    your mail to a multipart/mixed and stuck a useless empty attachment
    on the end.

  - Your patch did not apply for me, nor to the blobs mentioned in its
    header. Did you modify it after it was generated? I think this part
    in particular looks suspicious:

The patch itself looks correct.
