Don't get confused here.  Don't scare people away from doing the
staging-merge by talking about test-patches.py.

test-patches.py is a completely different problem than the staging
merge.  I agree that a solution for test-patches.py should be
found, but that's not as urgent, nor as TRIVIALLY easy to fix, as
the fact that you are the only person running the staging-merge at
the moment.
