I've talked to mvo and we decided that the best way to do this is to
detect whether the patch already exists in debian/patches or whether
it's a "local" patch on the filesystem that needs to be added. If it's
the latter we copy it into debian/patches, add it to series/00list and
then run edit-patch on it to make sure it applies and let the user make
any edits that are required.
I've tested this patch on a couple of packages for each patchsys and
haven't found any problems.
