Maybe the FM of Thunderbird: If someone mails you a patch (or a patchbundle, i.e., the output of `darcs send`) it will most likely be as an attachment. Probably there is some way to save the attachment - possibly by right-clicking on something, or using some menu item (but I don't know Thunderbird). I don't think that the contents of foo/_darcs/patches (or most things under foo/_darcs/, with the exception of foo/_darcs/prefs/) should be messed with by users. Just save the file somewhere else (e.g., /tmp), `darcs apply` it, and throw it away.
