Workflow with quilt patches & pipeline

Recent thread about how to add fixes to existing packages got me thinking.

Here is my proposal:

bzr branch lp:ubunt/package
cd package
bzr reconfigure-pipeline
bzr pump-patches
bzr show-pipeline
  package
  patch-01
  patch-02
*  patch-03
 bzr add-pipe new-patch
<edit & commit>
bzr switch-pipe :first
bzr pipe-patches debian/patches
dch -i -m "Added patch / fixes (lp: #1)"
debcommit
bzr push lp:~me/ubuntu/package/fixes
bzr lp-open

Merge proposal. Done.

Note pump patches doesn't exist yet ;-)

Ideally pump/pipe-patches should use DEB-3 for as much info as possible.

Comments? Shall I try implement this? Doesn't look like it's gonna be hard.....
