I agree. Is the following suggestion any good?
One good consequence of the patch theory is that it allows darcs to apply patches rigorously: other systems use "fuzzy" patching, searching through a file for what seems to be the best place to apply each change. Darcs knows exactly where the changes should go by looking at the patch histories of the source and target repositories. This removes a potential cause of corruption.
