I think we need to determine where these patches are belonging to. So IMHO Nova tree makes sense. But I am unsure if Tempest is the right place. I would say all tests with a general propose can be located in Tempest especially scenario tests. Since we are already planning to have a external CI system it would make sense to keep them somewhere outside and use the tempest lib (when ready).
