FWIW there are a small number of us working on improving patchwork so that 
we're able to rely upon the results it shows as being the outstanding patches 
in the queue and potentially even send email notifications to submitters (opt-
in). I'd also like to go a step further and trigger some automatic validation 
on patches. At the moment we're trying to figure out if we're able to spend the 
time working on this in the next development cycle.
