You could consider this if an upstream patch is rejected. Otherwise I would
not bother with maintaining a dpatch for such a simple change.
Actually, I would like to confine the patches to "necessary" cases, i.e.
* modifications due to Debian specifics
* severe bugs that need urgent repair
* enhancements that are agreed on by Debian users/packagers but rejected
upstream (after careful consideration) it they require changes to the
system files.
Patches are a lot of work: you need to maintain them as outdated patches
are a cumbersome as outdated documentation.
