Make our script a "submit_patch.py" wrapper around the vanilla "upload.py" rather than a replacement of it and it sounds like a good idea to me. I'd want to be able to do a signature check on upload.py before we enabled runtime downloading of new versions from the codereview site though (in the meantime, a vetted version checked into SVN would do the trick). Even with Roundup integration, being able to create/update the Reitveld issue and make the appropriate tracker updates with a single command would still be handy.
