Sounds good in theory, but the big assumption is that submitted patches might actually be applied. I uploaded https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/COCOON-1887 2 1/2 years ago and it's still waiting, even though it's a relatively trivial change and only about half a dozen lines of code if you ignore the comments and unit test :-( Less, if you exclude the bit to preserve backward compatibility. And it's by no means the oldest patch in the summary list that's sent to the list every few weeks...
