It really depends on the solution.  In general, Satchmo plays nicely with
other apps.

No.  They are spread out into multiple areas-of-responsibility to make it
easier to integrate, or to just deploy a "simple shop."

My company does this.  http://ecomsmith.com/maintenance/

Of course, custom code will need to patch occasionally.  Most times, careful
implementations need next to no patching.

However, most of the time we have huge patch needs with clients it is in
templates that they didn't need to copy or override.  That's the biggest
hassle, lazy programmers who just copy everything and then have to track
changes for every one of those files.

Do not do that!

I think http://elenis.com is quite good.  An older, very "fancy"
implementation I did is http://oohgabooga.com.  A simple, straightforward
implementation is http://pal-pad.com.  A very beautiful, possibly NSFW store
that I think gets a lot of things right is http://www.vollers-corsets.com

Even though they chose to stiff me on payments owed, and so I couldn't
recommend doing business with them, I think that
http://juiceanalytics.comis a fantastic integration of a serious
pay-by-subscription app and Satchmo.
