I would actually take this a step further and say this *shouldn't* be on the overview page. I know you've done a lot of work here, Karl, and I'm sorry I didn't catch from the bug that this was the direction you were heading. I should have read more closely. I don't think we should have a patches section on the overview page because all the other sections there (bugs, packages, questions, etc.) represent top-level objects or sections of Launchpad. Also, Martin A. felt very strongly in the UDS discussion that the overview pages should be very general-use pages and this feels like a very specific feature being kludged on to the page. I really think an "[N] bugs with patches" link in the filters on the bugs home page, e.g. https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/malone, is sufficient. I know it's not much, and I know there is the temptation to feel all this work on patches should be more fully exposed. We just need a link to +patches view and a filter with a count seems the right way forward, IMO.
