Indeed, likely a mishandling on my side :parent branch and :push
branches.

I authored them indeed. Besides fixing ~3 different issues, the lines are
so close that would make patches to have a strict order/dependency and
traces from each (thus kinda defeating a 1-patch-per-issue approach somehow).

Question (as I'm a total newbie regarding ubuntu/debian/upstream workflows):
it's not necessary to wait upstream to have them applied right ?
- thinking on trusty release happening in ~1month, and an army of thousand
cmdliners hating it because of its broken completion :)

Thanks, will do.
