And this is what we do :) I propose regular patches to upstream
maintainers and wait for them to incorporate them before reporting the
bug as closed on our side... and anyone that already did that kind of
stuff knows it takes time, effort and perseverance to follow-up all
the upstream bugtrackers. (http://www.sqlalchemy.org/trac/ticket/1291,
http://www.sqlalchemy.org/trac/ticket/1282)

I don't say we always do it, but frankly that is the TG community way
of thinking, which is the reason lots of us are active in upstream
packages.
