Yeah, obviously my english is not good enough to not fall into the trap
of misunderstood written short-communication. Or, as suggested,
rephrasing would be better.

I think, that nobody has the idea that patches are required and opening
a ticket is in my opinion perfectly fine. At least it ensures that the
problem is trackable and hopefully won't be forgotten.
However, if people are able to provide a patch, their fixes will be
applied much faster.
