You can maintain the property as well by adding a hook that applies the
patches at checkout time. (Even that hook is not strictly necessary, as
debuild will automatically apply patches at build time as necessary.)

To me this question if patches should be applied to the branch or not
seems to be a presentation issue, which should better be handled at
presentation level.
