I did not understand it like that. I always thought that the policy on this list was to put one change in one patch, e.g. one patch with the cleanId change and one with the improved graphics output for docbook. This has not so much to do with applyable or not, but with the fact that it is easyer to understand the changes with separate patches. In case you have several changes that build on each other, first reach a consensus on the first one, get somebody to apply it, then send the next etc. I did it like that with the temp file stuff.
