I sent oe-core patches upstream that aren't mine all the time.
Sometimes I as well don't even understand them fully, and then I have
upstream explain to me what's wrong with it or why is it not
appropriate or poorly written. Or they rework it themselves. The
primary goal is to engage the upstream and make them aware, and no one
expects you to produce a perfect patch and complete understanding of
the issue in your head up-front.

My request is simply to go through the not-too-hard technicality of
sending the patch via opening a merge request, so that there is an
link for it that can be followed up later by you, or by someone else.
Later can be measured in weeks or months, and often is.
