Yup, I'm not against doing away with proper patches. I'm against things like "It'd be nice if scriptaculous had a helper to make a web 2.0 application for me". Patches certainly still have a place, and essential functionality where the code fills a common need definitely belongs in core. That being said, most feature requests can be solved with a plugin, and many of them should be resolved in that fashon.
That being said, I think it makes sense to only allow patches and defects. Enhancements (which aren't patches) is just a wish list that gets out of hand.
